E-Mobility Sensors

TE Connectivity’s (TE) sensors provide the data for reliable monitoring and control of electric vehicle functions from buses to delivery trucks to heavy-duty trucks.

Society is demanding cleaner and quieter transportation alternatives reshaping transportation as we know it. The industrial and commercial transportation (ICT) industry is responding to create a path to use sensors for electrifying medium and heavy-duty trucks, buses, and off-road vehicles. Performing some of the world’s most demanding jobs, ICT vehicles demand superior performance including the need for reliability in ultra-harsh environments.

 

TE's sensor products enable reliability in the industrial and commercial transportation electrification movement by offering products supporting increased efficiency, safety and comfort transmitting data for increased control, adaptation, and response of the vehicle functions. TE’s sensor products have advanced performance when exposed to harsh extreme conditions like high temperatures, humidity, dust, vibration and electrical noise.

Sensing Technologies for Electrification of Buses and Trucks

Batteries, AC/DC inverters, DC/DC converters, and electric powertrains are becoming lighter weight and miniaturized, all contributing to robust designs and reduced energy consumption that extend vehicle range. With TE’s engineering expertise several sensors are designed for performance in ultraharsh environments, such as our resolver sensors that measure e-motor rotor position; our temperature sensors, which measure e-motor thermal management and charging inlet temperature; and our current sensors for battery pack power management and power electronics such as the inverter.

 

When considering driver comfort and automation, use of sensors is critical to optimize dynamic vehicle controls and create energy efficiency. For example, TE’s wheel speed and pedal travel position sensors support driver assistance systems (ADAS) like automotive braking systems (ABS) and cruise control. For energy management, TE’s cost-effective humidity sensing innovations help prevent overconsuming energy by automating HVAC controls and windshield defogging.
