Toshiba unveils new device for automotive applications

KUALA LUMPUR, July 6 (Bernama) -- Toshiba Electronic Devices and Storage Corp (Toshiba) has unveiled a new analog output IC photocoupler that enables high-speed communications in automotive applications.

The device will benefit electric vehicles (EV) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV). It is AEC-Q101 qualified for use in automotive applications.

The new TLX9309 consists of a high-output GaAlAs light emitting diode (LED) that is optically coupled to a high-speed detector, a statement said.The detector consists of a photodiode and a transistor integrated onto a single chip.

A Faraday shield has been integrated onto the photodetector chip to provide enhanced levels of common-mode transient immunity

typically up to 15kV/μs -- an important parameter in electrically noisy automotive environments.

The TLX9309 is now in mass production. More details on the specifications on https://toshiba.semicon-storage.com
