Realizing the diversification of injector injection models is also the development trend of manifold injection technology in the future. For example, in the design of the bending angle of the spray cone, engine developers can flexibly adjust the shape of the injector spray cone to match the injection cone shape. The geometry of the airway is adapted to avoid wet walls, thereby controlling hydrocarbon emissions.


Injector Active Safety TRW Made by Continental Integrates Active Safety Technology TRW, which has been working on active safety systems, brought a range of active safety technologies at CES, including Traffic Jam Assist, Highway Autopilot, Emergency Steering Assist and Pedestrian Protection, etc., and these functions are based on the support of cameras and radar sensors.
The S-Cam 3 camera can cooperate with the ACC function at high speed to add some monitoring functions. The S-Cam 4 camera includes a three-lens camera with a telephoto lens and a fisheye lens to enhance long-distance and long-distance respectively. The monitoring function is mainly used in traffic jam assist systems and highway automatic driving systems. SDE (Safety Domain ECU, Safety Domain ECU) is developed by TRW based on AUTOSAR (Automotive Open System Architecture), an open source system that integrates the control functions of vehicle chassis, suspension and ADAS. The second generation exhibited at CES this year The product, according to TRW, will play a role in semi-autonomous driving and V2V communication.


TRW integrates active safety systems, automotive electronics, Infineon pushes miniaturized smart motor control systems. At the Electronica trade show held at the end of last year, Infineon launched its embedded power series bridge drivers based on ARMR cores to address smart motor control in A growing trend in a wide range of automotive applications.


Utilizing the ARM R Cortex™-M3 processor to integrate high-performance microcontrollers on a single chip, Infineon's embedded power family enables 32-bit performance for application spaces normally associated with 16-bit. Samples of the first products in the Embedded Power Series are currently available for products using three-phase brushless DC motors and two-phase DC motors.


Miniaturization has become the development trend of intelligent motor control systems in the future. This time, the control system introduced by Infineon provides a standard QFN package with a size of 7mm × 7mm. Whereas previous multi-chip designs required separate microcontrollers, bridge drivers, and local interconnect network transceivers, the latest motor control designs require minimal external components, benefiting both component and vehicle manufacturers.


The new embedded power products reduce the number of components from the current roughly 150-plus to less than 30, integrating all the functions of motor control and related external components in just 3cm2 of PCB space. Therefore, the Embedded Power Series brings the electronic integration of the motor closer to a true mechatronic design.


Infineon said that smart motor control applications require a variety of complex motor control schemes that are affected by energy efficiency, system cost reduction and comfort requirements. By using the ARM RCortexTM-M3 processor, new automotive-grade smart motor control quality embedded power series to solve these design challenges. The Scalable Embedded Power Family helps automotive system suppliers benefit from lower system cost, higher reliability, and lower system complexity.


Infineon's embedded power series chip automotive interconnection Panasonic promotes in-vehicle interconnection systems At the annual CES exhibition, new products and new technologies related to automobiles account for a large proportion, including in-vehicle interconnection systems, driverless and other fields. Jokingly called the CES show more like the "Las Vegas Auto Show". At this year's CES show, Panasonic provided a brand-new in-vehicle interconnection system for vehicle companies such as Ford and Tesla.


At present, the in-vehicle interconnection systems installed on some models are difficult to make consumers interested in using them. Problems such as cumbersome operation and slow response also limit the promotion of in-vehicle interconnection systems.
