description With the widespread adoption of electric vehicles, the power converter, as a key component, plays a crucial role. Traditional fault detection methods often face challenges in real-time performance and computational efficiency, making it difficult to meet the demands of electric vehicle power converters for efficient and accurate fault diagnosis. To address this challenge, this paper proposes a novel fault detection model—SpikingShuffleNet. This paper first designs an efficient SpikingShuffle Unit that integrates grouped convolutions and channel shuffle techniques, effectively reducing the model’s computational complexity by optimizing feature extraction and channel interaction. Next, by appropriately stacking SpikingShuffle Units and refining the network architecture, a complete lightweight diagnostic network is constructed for real-time fault detection in electric vehicle power converters. Finally, the Mixed Local Channel Attention mechanism is introduced to address the potential limitations in feature representation caused by grouped convolutions, further enhancing fault detection accuracy and robustness by balancing local detail preservation and global feature integration. Experimental results show that SpikingShuffleNet exhibits excellent accuracy and robustness in the fault detection task for power converters, fulfilling the real-time fault diagnosis requirements for low-power embedded devices.
