Power Chip with Built-In Wheel-Speed Sensing

Article excerpt

A chip combines power control and wheel-speed sensing in one device, reducing parts, saving space, and helping build electronic brake systems more easily. Automotive engineers developing brake-by-wire systems can now use a single chip for both power management and wheel-speed sensing. Allegro MicroSystems has launched the A81415, an ASIL-D-certified power management IC (PMIC) that integrates […]
