Siemens has developed a family of single chip microcontrollers specifically for automotive applications. Not only has a great deal of time been devoted to defining a very compact peripheral orientated device, but consideration has also been given to enhancing standard hardware and software development tools for the new generation of microcontrollers. The application of semiconductor electronics to the automotive environment is one of the most demanding. Underbonnet systems are subject to extremes of temperature (-40 Cel to +130 Cel). Moreover, electrical systems within the car, such as alternators, spark ignition, by their very nature generate electromagnetic interference. To provide for the safety of the occupants any automotive application of microcontrollers must be reliable and above all fail-safe. The range of applications for semiconductor devices in the automobile is wide and varied. From simple dashboard monitoring and control, central locking, air-conditioning to engine management, anti-lock braking and gearbox control. New applications are being found for micro-controllers as the 'intelligence' for multiplexed wiring in remote node systems. With these types of applications in mind and the special environment in which the electronic components must work, Siemens has developed a whole range of semiconductor devices that provide efficient and low cost solutions. Among these devices are a family of sensor semiconductors ranging from Hall effect integrated circuits to pressure, temperature and light sensors. As future generations of complex microcontrollers become available, Siemens will produce versions of bond-out devices to ensure users can develop their projects with maximum of ease.
