dSPACE Webinar to Cover FPGA Motor Simulation for Real-Time EV Validation
The September 17 session focuses on using field-programmable gate arrays to validate motor controllers and inverters with microsecond precision.
dSPACE is hosting a webinar focused on high-fidelity FPGA-based motor simulation for real-time hardware-in-the-loop validation in electric vehicle development.
What Happened
The webinar, scheduled for September 17, 2026 at 10:15 am EDT, will demonstrate how field-programmable gate array technology enables parallel execution of electrical machine model equations in real time. Modern motor control systems operate with dynamics occurring within microseconds, requiring simulation platforms capable of extreme determinism and low latency. The session will cover practical implementation techniques for executing detailed machine models that enable realistic validation of motor controllers, inverters, protection strategies, and fault scenarios.
Why It Matters
For EV engineers developing powertrains, the ability to test motor control systems against high-fidelity virtual machines before physical prototyping can reduce validation risk and accelerate development cycles. FPGA-based simulation allows production control hardware to interact with detailed digital representations of electric machines operating at realistic speeds, potentially catching design issues earlier in the development process.
The Bottom Line
The webinar is free to attend and is part of the broader Virtual Conference on EV Engineering running September 14-17, 2026.
