Some of our Automotive Applications

Application for On-Board Charger (OBC)

Charging your Electric Vehicle (EV) at home requires converting the Alternating Current (AC) of the grid into a Direct Current (DC) that is compatible with your EV battery. Every electric vehicle needs an on-board-charger (OBC) that matches your home electrical infrastructure to your charging needs in terms of battery voltage and charging speed.

Application for Passive Entry Passive Start (PEPS)

Passive entry passive start, or PEPS, is an automotive radio frequency (RF) system enabling the access to the vehicle without physically activating the key fob. A low frequency field communication is used to detect the presence of the key fob in the proximity of the vehicle. Schaffner is a leading player in the design and manufacture of low frequency antenna (LFA) for PEPS applications. More recently, and thanks to its continuous innovation, Schaffner is leading the way and excelling in the design and manufacture of long-range antenna, whose longer range allows OEMs to reduce the number of antennas installed on the vehicle.
