EVCC Electric Vehicle Communication Controller

EVCC is a mission-critical component that enables safe charging and improves charging user experience EVCC enables safe charging: - Checks connection status of charging cable and charging inlet - Sets maximum allowed charging current EVCC improves charging user experience: - Facilitates Plug & Charge payment, eliminating additional payment process - Enables Vehicle-to-Grid (V2X) communication As EVCC connects to external networks, Cybersecurity becomes important consideration: - EVCC needs to prevent unauthorized external access to any vehicle system - EVCC needs to prevent tampering of the digital certificate required for Plug & Charge payment Sensata is presenting the latest generation Controller for charging Electric Vehicles to its extensive Electrification Portfolio. The EVCC (Electric Vehicle Communication Controller) is a solution that supports both CCS1 and CCS2 inlets and, thanks to Plug and Charge (PnC) capability, vehicles can be authenticated simply by plugging in the inlet, thus starting the charging process. The EVCC is a standard ECU for 24V environments. It realizes electrical charging according to DIN SPEC 70121 and ISO 15118 for power line communication (PLC) with the infrastructure. Sensata’s EVCC includes an integrated flash bootloader and a modern MICROSAR stack with all relevant application modules.
