INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION will change the way vehicles are designed

Electronic fuse (eFuse) technology can create electronic power distribution modules (ePDMs) for architectural flexibility, higher reliability, greater safety, and proactive maintenance.

Automotive engineers who design vehicles and vehicle assemblies, especially for electric vehicles, strive to maximize efficiency in every subsystem. Electrification and intelligence are deployed across numerous vehicle subsystems, including drive trains, braking, and collision avoidance. Nevertheless, one area that has been overlooked, until now, is power distribution.

Electronic fuse (eFuse) technology has emerged that can provide overcurrent protection similar to that of traditional fuses along with new programmable features. Integrating eFuse technology into an intelligent electronic power distribution module (ePDM) significantly impacts how vehicles are designed and serviced.
