With the trend toward an
increased number of electric equipment for automobiles, system
modularization and miniaturization of the car body while ensuring
sufficient space, the possibility that sets incorporating the
"CERALOCK" will be used in an engine compartment will be increasing in
the future.
As the temperature requirements for the components are raised (85°C
 125°C 150°C), improved thermal
shock resistance is also required for the components.
Murata has been improving piezoelectric materials for automotive
equipment, and now guarantees their operation at high temperatures (up
to 125°C) as its standard. Furthermore, Murata has strived
to develop highly heat-resistant piezoelectric materials in order to
ensure operation at even higher temperatures (up to 150°C). |
