Automotive electronics are rapidly evolving as the industry shifts toward electrification. The move away from fossil fuels is accelerating the adoption of EVs and HEVs, introducing greater complexity in both vehicle systems and testing requirements.

Testing has expanded beyond traditional automotive electronics to include high-power subsystems such as batteries, power conversion stages, and electric drivetrains, along with their interaction with low-voltage systems. These challenges are driving the need for advanced test solutions capable of higher power, faster response, and efficient simulation of real-world conditions. Bidirectional, regenerative DC power supplies have emerged as a key enabler for these applications.

In this on-demand webinar, we will:

• Explore market driviers behind bidirectional power supplies
• Compare bidirectional and bipolar power supply architectures
• Explain the operating principles of bidirectional DC supplies
• Demonstrate simplified EV power and drivetrain test scenarios using bidirectional solutions
