Murata enjoys a growing demand for various electronic components that ensure environmental friendliness, safety, and comfort in cars.
As environmentally friendly cars go mainstream, automobiles are fitted with more electronics, causing a rapid growth in demand for capacitors and other electronic components from Murata. Ultrasonic Sensors used for safety equipment as well as gyroscopes and Bluetooth® modules for navigation systems are also successful. We expect to continue to achieve high growth in the sales of components for automobile applications.
Employed in the inverter that controls the hybrid/electric vehicle motor, monolithic ceramic capacitors for power electronics applications feature a space-saving design.
Ultrasonic sensors can detect the distance to obstacles during parking maneuvers. It realizes easy parking and enhance driver's comfort.
Co-fired at low temperatures, these ceramic substrates find use in the automotive ECU (electric control unit) of the powertrain control equipment, such as transmission control unit, which is required to be highly reliable.
