SURFBOND

The goal of SURF­BOND is the development of advanced surface preparation lines for fusion and hybrid bonding….

Tiny Power Box 1

In the „Tiny Power Box 1“ project, the focus is on optimizing the power density of integrated chargers in e-cars, so-called onboard chargers. The goal is to reduce weight and save on components and space, while simultaneously increasing power density by a factor of 4, achieving the highest efficiency during fast charging, and enhancing environmental compatibility.

Genesis

The „GENESIS“ project researches the coupling mechanisms of electromagnetic interferences from automotive traction inverters. This forms the basis for a much stronger integration of simulation into the design of such inverters than has been the case to date....

Tiny Power Box 2

In the „Tiny Power Box 2“ project, the focus, as in the predecessor project „Tiny Power Box 1“, is on a further increase in the power density of charging devices for e-cars, so-called on-board chargers. The renewed goal is to further reduce weight and size. With the latest semiconductor technologies and optimized topology, as well as targeted thermo-mechanical optimization, the new on-board charger is intended to come even closer to an industrializable prototype...

DC Microgrid

The Silicon Austria Labs (SAL) research center, in collaboration with 11 international partners from science and industry, is driving innovative direct current technologies and direct current grids forward. The DC-MicroGrid project aims to accelerate the energy transition in industry and to enable more efficient, sustainable, and flexible energy systems.

InnoTract

By combining single-stage onboard chargers, integrated DC/DC converters, and T-type inverter drives, InnoTract offers industry-leading power density based on state-of-the-art wide-bandgap switching elements and AlN substrates. This advanced integration is designed for superior thermal performance, ensuring compact reliability while pursuing a stringent, ecologically motivated „cradle-to-grave“ approach for truly sustainable electric mobility.

WBG Pilot Line

The WBG pilot line strengthens the competitiveness of the European semiconductor industry by promoting the entire value chain and the rapid introduction of advanced wide-bandgap technologies. The focus is on WBG semiconductors such as SiC and GaN, as well as novel ultra-WBG materials for high-performance and high-frequency applications….

CoRaLi-DAR

As part of the EU-funded CoRaLi-DAR project, a low-cost, power-efficient, and reliable advanced sensor and ranging system is being developed as a platform for the automotive market and beyond. The project aims to combine both radio and light-based sensing in one module, leveraging the high-resolution capabilities of LiDAR and the high reliability of RADAR in adverse weather conditions. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)...

Opal

OPAL focused on the development of SAL's first integrated optical phased array system for LIDAR applications. Special attention was paid to the selection of the optical photonics platform to achieve low-loss operation with high bandwidth….

Indspeed

The INDSPEED project is developing a new ultra-precise magnetic encoder system based on TMR sensors and SmCo pole wheels.
