Aluminum Capacitors for Automotive High Temperature Applications

摘要

The developments within the automotive industry towards more and more electronics Under The Hood (UTH) and Engine Mount (EM) have led to increasing demand for electronic components suitable for High Temperature applications. These new High Temperature applications vary from low power applications, e.g. smart sensors, to high power applications, such as engine control, injection control and cooling fans. Medium power applications in miniaturized equipment will suffer increased temperature load too. Therefore other application fields like transmission control, traction control and X-by-wire are shifting towards Higher Temperatures as well. In order to enable these future High Temperature Power applications Vishay BCcomponents as leading component manufacturer is developing suitable Aluminum Capacitors.
