Reversible seatbelt pretensioner

Overview

As the primary safety feature in vehicles, seatbelts must uphold the absolute highest safety standards. A future-oriented seatbelt feature, reversible seatbelt pretentioners, replaces older pyrotechnic solutions to provide passengers with the next generation of seatbelt safety. As always, there are other factors that flow into this ASIL B application: the solution must be reliable, price-conscious and offer a high-level of integration.

In Infineon’s portfolio, you’ll find highly integrated solutions – the highest level of integration on the market – for reversible seatbelt pretentioners. What’s more, they’ll save you valuable space and respect your budget.
