Automotive Components

Automotive Grade IHLP low profile, high current inductors from Vishay Intertechnology now include a device in the 5050 case size. The Vishay Dale IHLP-5050EZ-5A combines a high operating temperature to +155 °C with a low profile of 5mm to save space in under the hood automotive applications.

A series of Automotive Grade AC line rated ceramic disc safety capacitors that offer AEC-Q200 qualification for Class X1 (760 VAC) / Y1 (500 VAC) applications in accordance with IEC 60384-14.4. has been released by Vishay Intertechnology.

The TPS382x-xx-Q1 family of supervisors from Texas Instruments provide circuit initialisation and timing supervision, primarily for DSP and processor-based systems. During power on, RESET asserts when the supply voltage VDD becomes greater than 1.1 V. Thereafter, the supply voltage supervisor monitors VDD and keeps RESET active low as long as VDD remains below the threshold voltage, VIT–.

The TAS5421-Q1 from Texas Instruments is a mono digital audio amplifier, well suited for use in automotive emergency call (eCall), telematics, instrument cluster, and infotainment applications. The device provides up to 22W into 4Ω at less than 10% THD+N from a 14.4-Vdc automotive battery. 

The TAS5720A-Q1 from Texas Instruments is a mono I2S input Class-D audio amplifier which is suited for use in automotive emergency call (eCall), telematics, acoustic vehicle alerting system (AVAS) and EV/HEV sound generation applications. The device provides up to 25W instantaneous power into 4Ω at ten percent THD+N at 14.4V. 

The TAS6422-Q1 device from Texas Instruments is a two-channel digital-input Class-D audio amplifier designed for use in automotive head units and external amplifier modules. The device provides two channels at 27W into 4Ω at 10% THD+N and 45W into 2Ω at 10% THD+N from a 14.4V supply and 75W into 4Ω at ten percent THD+N from a 25V supply. 

The Automotive Grade IHLP low profile, high current inductors range at Vishay Intertechnology has been expanded with a new device in the 2020 case size. The Vishay Dale IHLP-2020BZ-5A combines a high operating temperature to +155°C with a low profile of 2 mm to save space in under the hood automotive applications.

Manufacturer and supplier of advanced electronic components, AVX Corporation, released a new series of miniature, surface-mount, J-lead tantalum capacitors that deliver high reliability and high volumetric efficiency in high-temperature automotive and industrial applications.

-30V and -40V Automotive Grade p-channel TrenchFET power MOSFETs in the PowerPAK SO-8L package with gullwing leads for increased board-level reliability have been introduced by Vishay Intertechnology. Providing more than a 50% reduction in mounting area compared to devices in the DPAK, the AEC-Q101 qualified SQJ407EP and SQJ409EP save PCB space and lower costs while delivering lower on-resistance than any MOSFET with gullwing leads in the 5mm by 6mm footprint.

The line of PCI Express (PCIe) Gen 2.0 solutions at Diodes Inc has been extended with four new 3- and 4-port, 4-lane packet switches, designed to meet the needs of 5G, IoT, and AI networks. They are well suited for applications such as 5G/LTE, Wi-Fi Routers, STB, security systems, IPC, NAS and other power-sensitive, high-performance networks.
