Mitsubishi Motors adopts Analog Devices’ low-power isolation technology for next-generation electric vehicle

Analog Devices, Inc. said Mitsubishi Motors Corporation has adopted ADI’s iCoupler^® digital isolators to develop a safe, reliable and efficient Li-ion battery power system for the next-generation EV, the “i-MiEV” all-electric vehicle. Mitsubishi Motors describes the vehicle as the ultimate eco-car that produces no CO₂ emissions. Powered by 100% electrical power, the i-MiEV has a single-charge range of 160 kilometers and features a three-way charging system that allows a driver to charge the battery at home at 100 Volt or 200 Volt or at a remote quick-charge station. The i-MiEV will be introduced in Japan during calendar year 2010.  Read more...
