An introduction to automotive grade components

This paper explores glow wire testing, describes the rationale and compares the practice to other tests.

Billions of wireless IoT devices rely on battery power in a wide range of applications that include asset tracking, logistics, agricultural environment sensing, and smart utility monitoring, etc

Some of the largest costs associated with buildings center around HVAC operation. If energy costs are low, some areas may have infrastructure limitations or regulations on power consumption.

Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft designers are addressing voltage and power challenges in batteries, pods, and fast-charging stations with advanced connectivity solutions

Today, the challenges for interconnects in space applications are expanding as the size and weight of components and packages must decrease.

From home to work, on and off road, and in the air, connectivity is transforming our lives. More information, shared by more devices, informs better decisions on everything.

As a go-to innovation partner, TE offers this overview of an evolving portfolio of products to enable solutions for the connectivity challenges of electric flight.

Aircraft depend increasingly on digital electronics for information and control. The trend toward MEA (more electric aircraft) highlights the transition from mechanical to electronically controlled.

In the long run, designing for electromagnetic compatibility from the start saves headaches and unexpected costs down the road. Don’t let a penny saved today incur costs of several pennies tomorrow.

Contactor design is evolving to provide enhanced and increasingly intelligent monitoring of conditions.

An important step in automotive connectivity will be V2X technology. We are working on innovative ways to integrate this into intelligent transportation systems.

Meeting future market demand for safe, efficient, and reliable vehicles begins with harnessing new technologies that rely on cleaner forms of energy.

Automotive improvements have centered on key areas such as engine power and performance, safety, driver and passenger convenience, ride quality, fuel source, data-relay and entertainment.

We explore the transportation industry’s move towards electrification, which includes various (and competing) architectural approaches, each offering application-specific advantages

Powertrain electrification, automation and increasing autonomy and the emergence of new mobility will have a profound impact on the electrical power and electronic architectures (E/E architecture)

Society is demanding cleaner and quieter alternatives to gasoline and diesel-powered engines, making electric vehicles (EVs) clearly on a path to becoming a necessity.

The automotive industry is focused on four points, developing new and improved vehicle architecture approaches to efficiently address these challenges.
