SiCore Research is a lean power electronics engineering firm. We design and rapidly prototype silicon carbide inverters, motor drives, and electric motors, taking programs from first concept to production-ready hardware.
800 V Silicon Carbide Inverter
One compact inverter drives servo axes, propels traction systems, and manages power export. Its module-less, direct-die architecture delivers over 100 kW/L, and it scales from 100 kW to 500 kW and beyond.
Configurable feedback and communication interfaces let Kiowa meet the motor and network you already have, instead of forcing your system to fit the inverter.
We design high-power electrical systems end to end: the power electronics, the motor, and the controls that tie them together. Engage us for a single subsystem or a complete drive.
High-power inverters and converters at 800 V and beyond: SiC power stages, gate drives, busbars and power-loop layout, and protection, designed for density and robustness.
Motors designed alongside the drive that powers them, with electromagnetic and thermal design matched to your torque, speed, and packaging targets.
Motor control and inverter firmware for servo and traction drives, with EtherCAT, CAN, and Ethernet communications and resolver or encoder feedback.
Liquid-cooled thermal design, EMI/EMC design and pre-compliance, and hardware test and validation against your requirements.
Work with us on a single project or as a long-term engineering partner. Either way, the path from requirements to hardware is the same.
Share your power, voltage, thermal, and packaging requirements. We respond within 48 hours with an initial read on fit and a proposed path to hardware.
Topology, device, thermal, and motor trade studies up front, so the design is right before hardware is built.
Fast design-build-test loops against your requirements, with hardware engineered from first principles for high-shock, high-vibration, mission-critical environments.
Design for manufacture and hand-off to manufacturing partners, with engineering support as your program scales.
800 V SiC power conversion for the applications that push performance to its limits, from the track to the flight line to the front line.
High Performance
Compact 800 V SiC traction inverters engineered for the thermal swings, vibration loads, and weight budgets of competitive motorsport. Over 100 kW/L, where every liter and kilogram counts.
Active programs - details under NDAMission Critical
Ruggedized 800 V power conversion designed for shock, vibration, and wide-temperature operation, and architected for integration into defense and aerospace programs with demanding certification requirements.
Active programs - details under NDAIndustrial Grade
High-torque servo and high-cycle industrial drives. Resolver or encoder feedback and EtherCAT control let Kiowa drop into the motion systems you already run.
