The XENSIV™ TLE4999I3 provides all means that are necessary to fulfill the state-of-the-art functional safety requirements on system level. It is developed in full compliance with ISO 26262. The device provides high redundancy on one chip by means of two sensor elements included within one monolithic silicon design. The two diverse Hall sensor elements („main” and „sub”) have internally separated signal paths within the chip. A plausibility check secures the high diagnostic coverage required for premium functional safety compliant systems up to ASIL-D.
The CoolSiC™ Schottky diodes generation 5 1200 V, 8 A is now available in a D2PAK real 2-pin package. Connecting SiC diodes in parallel and in a small device package, a high efficient system can be achieved while minimizing board space requirement. The elimination of the middle pin reduces a risk of partial discharge at high voltage and high frequency operation.
