2266 Renesas Electronics has introduced seven new power metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistor (MOSFET) products equipped in HSON packages for use in automotive electronics control units for applications including direct-injection engine management and electric pump motor control.

The new products, including N-channel MOSFETs with 40V and 60V ratings and P-channel MOSFETs with a voltage rating of -30V, can be used for solenoids and motor switching or to protect against reversed battery conditions. The new products are available in HSON packages that are approximately one-half the size of the existing TO-252 package. They can switch currents up to 75A DC, and support channel temperatures up to 175°C.

    Glare from the sun is a factor in a large number of road accidents – many of them fatal. But there is a solution at hand: using polarisation can mitigate the effect of glare and improve ITS camera enforcement, explains Stephane Clauss The effect of glare on driver safety has been well documented. A 2013 UK study by the country’s largest driver organisation, the AA, calculated sun glare was a contributing cause in almost 3,000 road accidents in 2012 alone. This represented one in 33 accidents on Britain’s
