Swindon Silicon Systems is to create chips to implement novel battery management technology from Edinburgh’s Dukosi.
The companies expect that the resulting product will be available in the second half of 2018.
“We are thrilled to have entered this relationship with a global automotive and industrial partner supplier like Swindon Silicon Systems, who will provide operations, intellectual property, expertise and certification support to our product development program,” said Dukosi CTO Joel Sylvester. “We set extremely challenging criteria in our search for a partner – seeking a company who could deliver a product that will respond to the rigorous standards demanded by our customers. Swindon excelled in its response to every challenge.”
Dukosi has a unique approach to battery management that acquires, processes and stores discrete data directly at the cell. Using novel wireless technology, the system transmits real-time information on cell health and performance to support master level control of the battery pack.
“The Dukosi team has developed a solution to tackle battery management challenges in a novel way and are looking forward to applying our expertise in mixed signal ASICs and sensing to help them create a product,” said Swindon MD Jerry Loraine.
