Innovating Wire Protection in Automotive Power Distribution

Protecting the wire harness from over-temperature damage is crucial to prevent potential serious injuries and severe damage to the car, its passengers and its surrounding. Traditional melting fuses and relays were sufficient in the past and present architectures, but they are no longer adequate for the increasing functionalities, safety requirements, and the evolution of automotive power distribution into zone architectures. Learn how Infineon smart power switches and controllers, incl. automotive gate driver ICs overcome these challenges in our video.

Semiconductors in a high availability Power Distribution System

ADAS/ AD and X-by-wire systems introduce new functional safety requirements to the Power Distribution System. This also includes ensuring a high available energy supply and freedom from interference in power distribution sub-systems in accordance with ISO 26262:2018. This freedom from interference is secured by the introduction of safety elements, which require mandatory use of semiconductors. Infineon developed dedicate products families in accordance with ISO 26262:2018.
