High voltage (HV) terminals and connectors from TE Connectivity for hybrid and electric vehicles
High voltage (HV) terminals and connectors from TE Connectivity for hybrid and electric vehicles
It is a general tendency for new energy automobile after twists and turns. Well, it is hard for traditional connectors
to meet the requirements of big electric current and high voltage for new energy automobile. With more than 50
years of experience in automotive connectivity and HV electricity, TE enables the connections needed to safely,
efficiently and reliably make sustainable hybrid and electric mobility a reality.
TE Connectivity developped a broad line of HV connectors and headers includes a complete range of interfaces for
using in hybrid and electric vehicles.New developments and product family extensions include:
1. HVP 1100 System
The AMP+ HVP 1100 HV terminal and connector system is designed for voltage levels up to 750V. It meets a current
carrying capability up to 300A at 85 C and a cable range of 35mm² to 95mm² with individually shielded wires. Similar
to the proven HVA 280 and HVP 800 systems, this additional one position connector and header set is finger proof,
touch safe and features an integrated internal High Voltage Interlock (HVIL) for package size optimization. The system
enables multiple variations to meet design requirements for hybrid and electric vehicle applications such as new
generation batteries and fast charging applications.
The AMP+ HVP 800 HV terminal and connector system is designed for main interfaces in powertrains for hybrid and
electric vehicles. With voltage ratings of up to 850V for a current carrying capability of 200A at 85C, the system is
qualified for an individual cable ranging from 25mm² to 50mm². The latching mechanism enables optimum performance
even under shock and vibration condition. The headers are also suitable for bus bar mounting. Applications include
battery, inverter and e-motor.
TE’s AMP+ HVA 280 HV terminal and connector system includes finger-proof, touch-safe two- or three-position
low-medium current plugs and headers. The new two-position plug and header withstands severity level 3
(application close to powertrain). The header features stitched power tabs that can be mounted directly onto the
printed circuit board (PCB). The HVA 280 plugs, headers and in-line connections are suitable for use with multi-core
or individually shielded wires, and can reach voltage ratings of up to 850V, respectively. The current carrying
capability is up to 40A at 85C with a cable range of 2mm² to 5mm². The complete system offers multiple variations to
meet design requirements for hybrid and electric vehicle devices. The system also provides multiple latching options
and an integrated internal HVIL, allowing for package size optimization and routing flexibility. It is best for auxiliary
applications such as climate compressor, heater or on-board charger system.
