The electric vehicle (EV) market is undergoing a revolution, driven by cutting-edge technologies that promise to reshape the automotive landscape. Two recent announcements from Silicon Mobility and Intel highlight the significant strides being made in EV innovation, with both companies unveiling new solutions that aim to enhance performance, efficiency, and sustainability.
Silicon Mobility’s OLEA U310: A Leap Forward in EV Control
Silicon Mobility, a pioneer in advanced control solutions for automotive powertrains, has introduced the OLEA® U310, a groundbreaking Field Programmable Control Unit (FPCU) designed to optimize the control of electric and hybrid vehicle powertrains. The OLEA U310 is poised to set a new standard in EV performance, combining high computational power with unprecedented flexibility.
The OLEA U310 is built on Silicon Mobility’s proprietary FPCU architecture, which integrates a powerful multi-core microcontroller with programmable logic. This unique combination allows for real-time processing capabilities that are essential for the sophisticated control algorithms required in modern EVs. By enabling precise control over the powertrain, the OLEA U310 helps improve energy efficiency, extend battery life, and enhance overall vehicle performance.
The new OLEA U310 system-on-chip is the only complete solution that combines hardware and software in one and is engineered to match the need for powertrain domain control in electrical architectures with distributed software. (Credit: Silicon Mobility, an Intel Company)
