The MAX16946, is a high-voltage regulator with a precision current-sense amplifier (CSA), designed to provide phantom power to remote radio antennas in automotive applications. The device provides short-circuit protection, current-limit protection, and open-load detection. The current levels for current-limit protection and open-load detection are programmable with external resistors. To ensure that antenna detection circuitry meets performance o...

The ADXL103/ADXL203 are high precision, low power, complete single- and dual-axis accelerometers with signal conditioned voltage outputs, all on a single, monolithic IC. The ADXL103/ADXL203 measure acceleration with a full-scale range of ±1.7 g, ±5 g, ±18 g. The ADXL103/ADXL203 can measure both dynamic acceleration (for example, vibration) and static acceleration (for example, gravity).

The ADXRS622 is a complete angular rate sensor (gyroscope) that uses the Analog Devices, Inc., surface-micromachining process to make a functionally complete and low cost angular rate sensor, integrated with all of the required electronics on one chip. The manufacturing technique for this device is the same high volume BiMOS process used for high reliability automotive airbag accelerometers.

The ADXL278 is a low power, complete, dual-axis accelerometer with signal conditioned voltage outputs that are on a single monolithic IC. This product measures acceleration with a full-scale range of (X-axis/Y-axis) ±35 g/±35 g, ±50 g/ ±50 g, or ±70 g/±35 g (minimum). The ADXL278 can also measure both dynamic acceleration (vibration) and static acceleration (gravity).

ALPS ELECTRIC EUROPE GmbH has developed the HGPRDT Series highprecision latch 2-phase output* type magnetic sensor for use in automotive equipment, supporting a wide operating temperature range between –40°C and +140°C, and high voltages up to 30V.

The MAX2670 GPS/GNSS front-end amplifier IC is designed for automotive and marine GPS/GNSS satellite navigation antenna modules or for any application that needs to compensate for cable losses from the antenna to receiver. Two unconditionally stable low-noise amplifier stages provide the high gain and integrated I/O matching to minimize the need for external matching components and eliminate the need for additional gain stages. The device feature...

STMicroelectronics today introduced the market’s first multi-functional door-zone driver with an integrated electric-window control. This innovative chip, which reduces bill-of-material costs and offers new levels of passenger comfort, has already been selected for broad adoption at a leading German car manufacturer.

The new A4970 from Allegro MicroSystems Europe is a dual, full-bridge PWM motor driver IC featuring the latest DMOS technology to provide a significant reduction in quiescent and switching power losses.

Infineon Technologies today introduced an innovative package technology providing high-current capability and high efficiency for demanding automotive electronics applications, including electric and hybrid vehicles. The new TO package is compliant with JEDEC standard H-PSOF (Heatsink Plastic Small Outline Flat lead). The first available products using the H-PSOF package technology are 40V OptiMOS T2 power transistors offering up to 300A current ...
