Microchip is… E-Mobility

Interview With Wayne Liang, Automotive Segment Sales Manager at Microchip Technology Inc.

In this podcast, we speak to Wayne Liang, automotive segment sales manager about his role at Microchip connecting with customers in the Electric Vehicle (EV) industry to understand their needs and stay ahead of trends in the market.

The automotive industry is moving toward a more sustainable future, as the industry introduces increasing numbers of Hybrid-Electric Vehicles (HEVs) and fully Electric Vehicles. The electrification of critical functions requires customers to build efficient, reliable and adaptable solutions to generate, distribute and control high power.

Microchip offers integrated development tools, a broad portfolio of hardware and software and advanced materials such as Silicon Carbide (SiC) to facilitate the necessary innovation in advanced EV and HEV systems to meet market demand quickly with high quality products and solutions.

In this episode, Mike and Wayne cover topics including charging stations and the need for scalability in EV systems, on-board chargers, 2-wheel vehicles and how Microchip offers support across the entire E-Mobility landscape for designers.

Beyond the Microchip

So much of our daily lives are controlled or influenced by electronics. We rely on GPS to direct us, we hit "brew" on our coffee machines for our mornin' cup of Joe, we wave our hands over a sensor to get running water from a faucet, and press a button to open our garage doors. 

But do we really know what's going on inside? Are we aware of the universe of technology and calculations going on right under our nose?

Beyond the Microchip takes you inside the world of Embedded Control technologies to understand how the chips and sensors we can't see impact our lives in dramatic ways. They remind us why we have and embrace technology, to enhance the human experience. 

Join us each episode as we look at an aspect of our daily lives that shapes what it means to be human and how we can empower the innovation that enhances that experience through Microchip Technology. Subscribe to Beyond the Microchip wherever you get your podcasts.
