How to create approved drivers that can work in harsh operating environments.
ON Semiconductor is a leading provider of products for automotive applications that follow the Automotive Electronics Council (AEC Q-100-012) requirements for reliability characterization of smart power devices. This case study documents the verification challenges and solutions to validate short circuit reliability of Automotive Smart FET driver ICs according to these AEC requirements. Designers use smart FET drivers for many automotive applications, including bulb/LED and solenoid/actuator loads, and relay and fuse replacement. These FET drivers must be AEC compliant and they are required to work in harsh operating environments.
