Thursday, March 9, 2023

For example, high accuracy current sensing is required to improve motor rotation efficiency and to detect abnormalities.

Key Points: 
  • For example, high accuracy current sensing is required to improve motor rotation efficiency and to detect abnormalities.
  • However, conventional configurations (operational amplifier + discrete components) generally face challenges such as deterioration of current sensing accuracy due to variations in component accuracy and temperature characteristics.
  • In response, ROHM leveraged its strengths in analog technology to develop a new series of current sense amplifier ICs that achieves high accuracy current sensing in a space-saving design.
  • This reduces the number of components from eleven to just three compared to conventional configurations (operational amplifier + discrete components).

Wednesday, March 1, 2023

As a result, redundant power supplies that can continue to operate core functions (sub-MCUs), even in the event of a main system malfunction, are being increasingly incorporated in automotive power supply system.

Key Points: 
  • As a result, redundant power supplies that can continue to operate core functions (sub-MCUs), even in the event of a main system malfunction, are being increasingly incorporated in automotive power supply system.
  • As redundant power supply circuits are added to conventional systems, they must necessarily be space-saving and consume low power.
  • ROHM's new products can be used as primary power supplies by taking advantage of original power supply technology accumulated over many years.
  • In addition to redundant power supplies, the space-saving, low power consumption design makes these LDOs ideal for applications that operate when the engine is stopped.
