MUNICH, Germany, Feb 25, 2025 – Infineon Technologies AG and Eatron extend their existing partnership for battery management solutions (BMS) in automotive to a comprehensive BMS portfolio, including various industrial and consumer applications. Enabled by Infineon’s PSOC microcontrollers, the collaboration brings together the benefits of AI-powered battery optimization software and advanced power semiconductor components to create a solution that minimizes degradation, detects safety issues, and enhances the performance and reliability of battery-powered systems.
The technology integrates Eatron’s AI-powered BMS software, based on pre-trained models, featuring SOX, RUL, and Safety Diagnostic, with Infineon’s components, including MOSFETs for battery protection and PSOC 6 AI-based battery management system for state-of-the-art machine learning capabilities. Customers can access a range of benefits, including precise forecasts of battery State of Charge (SOC), reduced system costs, and faster market entry. The collaboration meets the emerging need for advanced battery management systems across industrial and consumer sectors, including light electric vehicles, portable electronics, energy storage, robotics, and power tools.
The battery management and optimization market is growing fast. It is due to a rising need for more energy efficiency, extended battery life, and predictive maintenance. AI plays a key role in enhancing battery performance, making the Eatron-Infineon technology a top choice for various applications. These include robotics, wearables, portable medical devices, smart home devices, battery-operated IoT products, and low-power energy storage systems.
Eatron’s software has been pre-validated and deployed on Infineon’s PSoC. It has been benchmarked on an application comprising up to 24 cells against traditional techniques that require cell characterization. The evaluation used a commercially available LG Chem INR21700 M50 cell across a broad temperature range (0–45°C), demonstrating comparable results. These findings underscore the strong value proposition of Eatron-Infineon technology.
“We’re excited to collaborate with Eatron to bring AI-powered battery optimization software to a wide range of industrial applications. Our PSOC microcontrollers, with their advanced machine learning capabilities, are the perfect fit for Eatron’s AI-powered software suite, enabling customers to unlock new levels of performance, reliability, and safety in their battery-powered systems,” said Cuauhtemoc Medina, industrial application manager at Infineon.
“We are excited to expand our partnership with Infineon, combining our Advanced SoX and predictive diagnostics software, integrated on the PSOC family to provide market-leading battery management and diagnostics in various industrial applications,” said Dr. Umut Genc, CEO of Eatron.
AI plays a key role in Infineon’s growth. The company strengthens its market position with innovations such as ultra-thin silicon (Si) wafers and 300-millimeter gallium nitride (GaN). It also leads in 200 mm silicon carbide manufacturing technology.
