24 POWER MODULES www.vicorpower.com Issue 2 2025 Power Electronics Europe www.power-mag.com system with a fast enough transient response, high slew rate, and power efficiency to manage bidirectional power flow between a device and its power source…until now. The BCM6135 high slew rate (eight million amps per second) enables the fastest bidirectional power transfer for energy recuperation for active suspension systems. Using power modules from Vicor, Hongfa has designed the most advanced solution for powering active suspension. Not only are the Vicor DC-DC converters capable of matching the power and transient requirements to optimize energy recuperation, they also offer the highest power density in the industry enabling OEMs to reduce the overall system footprint. Vicor BCM6135 poised to solve a wide variety of EV power dilemmas The Vicor BCM power modules embody the characteristics power engineers are seeking to solve complicated power problems. The BCM6135 is light-weight, power-dense, bidirectional and extremely fast— features needed to solve this decades-old, active suspension power problem. A0nd this is just the beginning. Vicor power modules enable new levels of scalability and flexibility, high efficiency and passive cooling. Power modules help reduce component count and simplify automotive power engineers’ most complex problems. The BCM6135, a compact DC-DC converter module, is the perfect a problem-solving product for today’s engineers trying to find better solutions in the rapidlychanging world of automotive electrification. Figure 4 BCM6135 enables active suspension power system size to be reduced by half. Active suspension has been a notoriously heavy, power-intensive system that is costly to design. It has plagued power designers for decades. Today Hongfa, an automotive tier-one supplier, is working with Vicor to develop 800V-48V DCDC converters to build the ultimate active suspension system. The system capitalizes on 48V coupled with Vicor power modules to reduce overall size and weight.
