The electric and connected car market break-in in the last years is promoting the development of an automotive electronic component-centered industry. As time goes by, they get more and more indispensable inside the wide variety of systems which are built into any car.
The automotive sector wants and should be in the front row of this digital revolution and be aware of state-of-the-art technologies available in the market. Concepts such as connected vehicle, electrification, or the autonomous driving are changing what mobility means today.
Moreover, automatic electronic components are supported by a strong I+D investment as suppliers are conscious on how the manufacturing of these product is growing tirelessly.
There is a number of automotive electronic components which are used in almost every part built in the vehicle. However, they are divided into three main categories: carbody electronics, engine management electronics and sensors. We will describe each as follows:
Timers (relays with electronic circuit)
Electronic modules
Air conditioning electronic monitoring system
Fleet management and navigation systems
ABS electronic units
ECAS systems electronic units
Electronic starters
Electronic units of spark plugs
(NTC) Temperature sensors
(piezoelectric) Knock sensor
Engine revolution sensor for ABS system
ABS wheel revolution sensor
Sensor TDC (inductive)
Air pressure sensor (inductive)
Hydraulic pressure sensor for the brake system(piezoresistant)
Exhaust gas pressure sensor
Tyre speed sensor
Oxygen sensor (Lambda probe)
