NAGOYA -- Top Japanese auto parts supplier Denso has developed a power semiconductor device for electrified vehicles that can reduce energy loss by 20%, seeking a bigger role in the technologies that make electric vehicles stand apart in a crowded market.
Power chips, along with analog semiconductor devices that monitor battery health, are vital to electric vehicle performance. Denso is stepping up in-house development and production of these components rather than outsourcing design and manufacturing, as it does with other automotive chips.
