    POWER on with ROHM

    At the seminar, ROHM demonstrated a number of automotive electronics featuring a high degree of technology, sophistication and elegance. ROHM offers a variety of car audio ICs and discrete solutions and is expanding its product lineup to meet the needs of new and emerging applications in the automotive industry, including for car navigation and multimedia systems

    ROHM recently demonstrated the prowess of Technology in power management – Automotive and industrial solutions during the Product Innovation Seminar at Nikkei-BP Asia Monozukuri Conference held on March 15, 2016 in Chennai, India.

    ROHM doesn’t make and sell components but is concerned with the type of solution possible for the customer. This enables ROHM to refine existing technologies. Though ROHM’s products are not seen at the first glance however they are involved in the development and manufacture of a whole host of electronic products, from standard parts to the most advanced components utilizing cutting-edge, original technologies, making ROHM the unseen force behind many consumer electronics devices. ROHM, established in Kyoto in 1958 started as manufacturer of small electronic components and subsequently expanded to transistors, diodes, ICs and other semiconductor products were added to the lineup.

    Vijay Bolloju, Design Centre Manager India, ROHM, speaking at the seminar on ‘ROHM Semiconductor Vision for India’ candidly exhorts, “As the global demand of energy is increasing rapidly, our goal is to accelerate the work on the energy efficiency semiconductor devices. Rohm Energy Team is instrumental in providing expertise in energy efficiency to the facilities. Be it a compact, high-efficiency, high power synchronous boost DC/DC converter IC or the PMICs that optimize for low power and enable fanless designs of space-conscious mobile PC products such as Ultrabooks, 2-in-1 detachables, and tablets built around Intel’s 14nm Skylake processor”. Speaking on the Make in India initiative he stated that, “ROHM has setup design centre in Bangalore, India that will help design for automotive and automobile sector”.

    Automotive Electronics
    At the seminar ROHM demonstrated a number of automotive electronics featuring a high degree of technology, sophistication and elegance. ROHM offers a variety of car audio ICs and discrete solutions and is expanding its product lineup to meet the needs of new and emerging applications in the automotive industry, including for car navigation and multimedia systems. In addition, following the increased digitization of vehicles and ITS, ROHM is developing ICs and discretes for body and power train systems. And as vehicles become increasingly safe, comfortable, and more efficient ROHM continues to bring new products and devices to market.

    Buck and Boost Switching Regulator Controller
    power-on-with-rohm-1The BD9035AEFV-C is a buck-boost switching controller with a high withstand voltage and a wide input range (VIN=3.8~30V) capable of generating buck-boost output with one inductor. The IC has a ±7% high accuracy switching frequency for the entire operating temperature range (Ta=-40°C~+125°C).

    power-on-with-rohm-4

    ROHM’s BD71805MWV utilizes power supply technology cultivated for mobile applications to optimize circuit configuration for the i.MX 6SoloLite processor. The result is significantly reduced power consumption during both standby and normal operation, prolonging battery life considerably. In addition, an RTC (Real Time Clock) function that enables clock and calendar management without driving the main processor is built in, increased operating time, along with a Li-ion battery charger featuring 30V input overvoltage protection that eliminates the need for an external IC. This reduces footprint by 20%, contributing to greater miniaturization.

    Specifications & Features:

    • Low current consumption (OFF Mode: 25uA)
    • Saves space by integrating all functions required for battery systems on a single chip
