ON Semiconductor's advanced automotive electronics solutions drive energy savings

In order to achieve energy-saving and emission reduction of automobiles, vehicle manufacturers are sparing no effort to adopt various feasible electronic components, and the effects of these components depend to a large extent on the semiconductor products that make up them. Globally, the average semiconductor content per vehicle in 2010 has reached $262, and will reach $305 in 2013 and $335 in 2017. In comparison, China currently has a lower semiconductor content per vehicle than in Europe, America and Japan, so the development prospects are very impressive. As a leader in providing a wide range of products and solutions, ON Semiconductor designs unique solutions for its customers' system requirements in its key automotive segments, helping customers improve their energy efficiency, reduce energy consumption and achieve environmental impact.

3) Automotive LED lighting solutions
LED lighting has the advantages of high light efficiency, low power consumption, long service life, strong safety and reliability, environmental protection and energy saving. The LED single-tube power is 0.03-0.06 W, which is driven by DC. The single-tube driving voltage is 1.5-3.5 V and the current is 15-18 mA. It reflects fast speed and can be operated at high frequency. When used in the same lighting effect, the power consumption is one ten thousandth of that of incandescent lamps and one-half of fluorescent tubes.

Common automotive LED lighting drive solutions include resistors, linear current regulators (CCRs), linear regulators, and switching regulators. These different solutions have improved energy efficiency, but the complexity is increasing. Among them, the lowest resistance cost, no electromagnetic interference problem, depending on the voltage, the lowest energy efficiency, can simply limit the maximum current of the LED, but the energy efficiency is also the lowest, and there are problems such as LED screening cost and thermal runaway. CCR performance is better than resistors, cost less than linear regulators, no electromagnetic interference problems, wide voltage range, high power density package, LED protection, AEC-Q101 certification, low energy efficiency. Linear regulators have a constant current accuracy of ±2%, multi-line, over-power self-regulation, no EMI problems, moderate cost, and low energy efficiency. The switching regulator has high energy efficiency and requires a dedicated socket. The cost is high and electromagnetic interference is generated.

ON Semiconductor's automotive application LED drivers are very rich. Typical applications for linear regulators are central high-position stop lights, combined taillights (turn signal lights, tail lights, brake lights), side turn signals, and backlights; featuring low current LEDs (~20mA), low total power consumption, up to 85 ̊C Ambient temperature and low system integration. Specific solutions include NSI45xxx (10mA–160mA / 45V) CCR, NUD4001 (500mA/30V) LED drivers and NUD4011 (70mA/200V) LED drivers. Typical applications for switching regulators are internal lighting, combined taillights (light guides), headlamps (first generation) and ambient lights; featuring power LEDs (700 mA), medium to high total energy consumption, up to 125 ̊C environment Temperature and low system integration; specific solutions are NCV3065/6 (1.5 A) constant current LED switching regulator and NCV8871 boost controller. Typical applications for lighting management integrated circuits (LMICs) are headlamps (high beam, low beam, daytime running lights, position lights, turn indicators, fog lights, static turn signals, side marker lights, etc.). Advanced Headlight System (AFS), combined taillights; power LEDs of 700 mA, medium to high total power consumption, suitable for ambient temperatures up to 125 ̊C, complete subsystems; specific solutions for automotive headlamp applications Highly integrated LED controller NCV78663 and linear current regulator for combined taillights and controller NCV7680.

1) Power LED headlight scheme The traditional halogen headlamp power is 55 W, the LED headlight power is only 30W, and the LED headlights can save 45% energy. LED headlamps require support from a single LED to multiple LED strings, voltages up to 60 V, PWM dimming (eg for position lights), energy efficient integrated drivers for low EMC radiation, diagnostics, communication Interface requirements.
