Littelfuse Automotive Electronics Applications Guide

Learn about Littelfuse’s history of automotive innovation and its broad portfolio of high-quality, high-performance automotive electronics components and solutions.

With electronics controlling an ever-higher percentage of vehicle functions, the circuit protection devices that prevent hazardous overvoltages and overcurrents have evolved to keep up with the transition to what is essentially a supercomputer on wheels. In addition, electrical power control is transitioning from mechanical relays, solenoids, and switches to devices like IGBTs, MOSFETs, Schottky Diodes, and Thyristors. 

Read this applications guide from Littelfuse to learn more about how sophisticated electronics are now integral to vehicles sold at every price point. For example, hydraulic power steering is being superseded by steer-by-wire systems. New safety and passenger entertainment functions such as advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), parking assist, lane departure, and forward collision warning systems were once available only on high-end vehicles.
