Expectations for the semiconductor technologies in EVs and HVs

EVs and HVs will have a certain share in the future market place. To populate these vehicles, the semiconductor technologies will play a central role. And those technologies will be crucial for the quality of EVs and HVs. To populate EV and HVs, cost will be the most critical factor even in the future. The portion of battery cost will still be large compared to inverter and motor cost. Therefore there is a need of cutting the cost of batteries for EVs and HVs. To do so, there are some technologies undergoing. These technologies are presented and expectations for the semiconductor technologies are explained.
