In motor-control applications, our temperature sensors keep motors from exceeding safe operating temperatures that could lead to overheating, bearing failures, overloads or winding faults. Concurrently, enabling operation closer to thermal limits achieves peak motor-control performance without shortening motor life.

Benefits:

• Cooler/heater activation at elevated temperatures guards battery-management systems and system health while reducing system downtime.
• Safe power management increases the performance of other sensors and extends component lifetimes.

In automated factories, our temperature sensors monitor battery packs and chargers, along with industrial, telecommunications and server, and AC/DC power supplies. Accurate monitoring enables higher efficiency – increasing battery life and enabling faster charging – by optimizing the power supply based on real-time data.

Benefits:

• Thermal drift compensation to increase accuracy and reliability.
• Lower maintenance costs and reduced system downtime by using temperature data to quickly detect overheating.

In HEV, EV and powertrain applications, our temperature sensors ensure that components operate within safe thermal limits, charge efficiently based on battery profiles, and regulate current to overheated metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs).

Benefits:

• Cooler/heater activation at elevated temperatures helps prevent component failure, while guarding battery-management systems and protecting MOSFET health.
• Efficient power management shortens charging time and increases component life.
• Automotive-qualified and TI Functional Safety-Capable
