Low Voltage, Kilowatt-Level Propulsion
- Range maximization is critical for ground and flying vehicles
- Many systems require low voltage but high current drives
- Cyclone enables 48V systems to run at 21kW
Range maximization is critical for ground and flying vehicles
The tradeoff between range & payload has been a consistent limiting factor for electric vehicle adoption. Scaling air and ground vehicles across cargo, passenger, & defense applications is going to require transporting payloads in the hundreds or thousands of pounds on multi-mile, intercity routes. Getting there isn't going to be easy, and pulling every last mile of range out of your system is essential.

Many systems require low voltage but high current drives
To stay compliant with existing safety standards, many platform designers are opting to use low voltage batteries (< 50V). Many low voltage systems integrate energy-hungry payloads resulting in very high current demands. These high demands require additional design efforts to resolve (such as thermal bottlenecking).

Cyclone enables 48V systems to run at 21kW
Cyclone directly solves the low voltage, high power issue. Compact packaging with well thought-out thermal design enables rapid development of vehicles that need to comply with low voltage standards.
