To improve system integration, our power management ICs (e.g. SPSB081 or SPSB100) have enhanced power management functionality, including various standby modes to minimize the power consumption with programmable local and remote wake-up capability, as well as LIN and CAN-FD physical communication layers.
Automotive PMIC devices are designed to reduce component count, optimize space, and integrate all the trend functions demanded by the market.
They guarantee full diagnostics, electrical protection, and redundancy (STPM801), high current capability (STPM098), buck/boost functionality (STPM802), sequencing, monitoring, low power consumption mode, and selectable and multiple voltages (STPM066S, SPSA068, L5965) to satisfy all application needs.
PMICs and SBCs devices provide a SPI interface that allows the control and diagnosis of the device, enables generic software development to be integrated on microcontroller unit.
The devices offer a set of features to support applications that need to fulfill functional safety requirements as defined by the automotive safety integrity level (ASIL).
