 Hello, my name is Ryan Metivier. I'm Product Marketing Manager for ST Microelectronics. Welcome to ST's CES Experience. Other videos you've probably have seen in our channel relate how ST has solutions that start at the sand and all the way to the silicon. So what now we're doing now is we're looking how that silicon is turned into solutions. And so on the wall here we're looking at a power and energy solution, specifically a hybrid solution that includes both solar, grid and energy storage. So up in the up top you have a solar microinverter and this is harvesting the energy from the solar panel and it's converting it to AC. In the central AC hub if you will, this is controlling the conversion of the AC power to DC power either sending it back to the grid or towards a charger for the energy storage battery or for charging the EV storage. The various lights are just showing different directions of how energy can flow in the system because many pieces of this are bi-directional. For example, this charger is a bi-directional charger for an EV. It can provide power from either solar, grid or energy storage to charge your EV or it can take energy from your EV to power your home. So these boards are showing the complete ST solution that we have everything from the microcontroller down to the power discreet and everything in between and that includes the DC to DCs, the signal conditioning, the gate drivers, galvanically isolated products, also connectivity solutions that connect these different pieces together so they can communicate to maximize the efficiency of your home. The key thing here is these are actually real reference designs that our engineers all around the world have put together to help our customers get started on their own solution. On our website, many of these boards are virtually all of these boards have schematics, bills of materials and Gerber files and firmware to help get your project started. Let's take a minute and look a little bit closer at this power control system and some of the key features of it. So let's discover a little bit more about some of the solutions that ST has to offer in this particular space. So now we're going to talk a little bit more about that main inverter and the central distribution. So here we have a collection of blocks in the system that we can support to help our customers maximize the efficiency. As I mentioned before, we have thousands of reference designs available on our website and we have system solution from our experts around the globe from silicon to solution. So if we look a little bit closer at the bi-directional AC to DC converter, here are some of the types of devices that we can help with. So we have iGBTs, silicon carbide MOSFETs, signal conditioning, galvanically isolated gate drivers from the ST GAP family, protection devices, LDOs and of course the control unit, the STM32 processor as well as eProm memories. Another key piece of these types of high voltage systems are auxiliary power supplies. These provide the initial conversion from high voltage to low voltage that allow all the intelligence to run. And these are systems that are from low voltage MOSFETs in high voltage MOSFETs as well as controllers. We have several families of great devices such as the Viper family that integrate the high voltage power MOSFET with a controller to help simplify the system. We also offer a complete selection of resonant and flyback controllers for developing your own auxiliary power supply. We also have the ISO buck family that can create low voltage buck style converters that also provide some isolation. We also provide some connectivity options. PLC is a very common technology implemented in these systems that allow the different components to communicate to one another. We even offer hybrid PLC solutions that combine sub gigahertz RF with power line connectivity to allow reliable data communication regardless of the quality of the line. We have a full suite of wireless MCU offerings from our STM32 WBA and WB multi protocol system on chip and we also have blue energy solutions. And then rounding out many of these systems it's important to monitor the energy that is flowing through the system so we have a complete suite of metering ICs that feature DSP technology that does all the power and energy computation on chip that can be extracted by a simpler MCU with simple UART commands. And for user interfaces many of these devices can have a control panel on them with graphics or LEDs and so we have LED drivers and we also have advanced touchscreen graphic interfaces that are driven by our TouchGFX framework for advanced HMI development on the STM32 platform. That rounds out just one of these solutions and each of these types of systems has its own ecosystem of ST devices to help realize your product.
