ROHM has recently announced the adoption of its new 4th Generation SiC MOSFETs and gate driver ICs in electric vehicle inverters from Hitachi Astemo, Ltd, a leading Japanese automotive parts manufacturer.

Deliver class-leading power dissipation in a compact package ideal for small, thin devices.

Lineup also expanded to include two updated general-purpose MCR series shunt resistors.

Contributing to the technical innovation of new energy vehicles through the development of automotive SiC power devices.

ROHM has developed an on-device learning AI chip (SoC with on-device learning AI accelerator) for edge computer endpoints in the IoT field. It utilizes artificial intelligence to predict failures (predictive failure detection) in electronic devices equipped with motors and sensors in real-time with ultra-low power consumption.

ROHM has signed a joint development agreement with Mazda Motor Corporation (Mazda) and Imasen Electric Industrial Co., Ltd., (Imasen) for inverters and SiC power modules to be used in the electric drive units of electric vehicles, including e-Axle.

During its fair presence at electronica 2022 in Munich, ROHM has honored FUTURE ELECTRONICS, a distributor of electronic and electro-mechanical components, with the “Distributor of the Year” award.

Contributes to improved visibility by reducing uneven brightness and color in indicators and numeric displays.

The full HD compatible products contribute to functional safety through end-to-end data monitoring.

ROHM developed automotive-grade LDO regulator ICs: the BUxxJA3DG-C series (BU12JA3DG-C, BU15JA3DG-C, BU18JA3DG-C, BU25JA3DG-C, BU30JA3DG-C, BU33JA3DG-C). The devices are designed for automotive applications such as sensors for ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) which have become smaller and more powerful.
