How Safety Requirements For Autonomous Vehicles Will Reinvent Fuse And Relay Boxes In Automotive Power Distribution
By Infineon - 09 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

Open up the bonnet of any modern automobile and many of us would be hard-pressed to find anything that we could fix ourselves. With pipes and cables almost artistically integrated into the engine bay, and sleek plastic covers fitted everywhere, there is very little that can still be recognized, yet alone repaired. Perhaps the only location where we feel comfortable is the “fuse box”, or pow... » read more
