As automotive manufacturers strive to enhance safety, performance, comfort and

fuel-efficiency levels, the semiconductor content of vehicles is rising and electronic

systems are becoming more complex. Consequently, system suppliers must meet

increasingly severe requirements. Building on our expertise in both automotive

and small-signal discretes solutions, Philips offers an extensive portfolio of discrete

components that help suppliers meet the rigorous and diverse technical demands

on automotive electronics.The wide portfolio enables automotive designers to be

flexible in their designs. By means of integrated products the component count is

decreased and thus costs can be reduced.

Automotive small-signal discretes solutions

All our new products are released in the well-known SOT23 package,

as well as in smaller packages like SOT323 (SC-70), SOD323 (SC-76)

and SOD323F (SC-90).To support the trend towards integration also

multiple transistors and diodes are available integrated into just a

single package like SOT457 (SC-74) and SOT363 (SC-88).

Philips has all the technologies in place to lead the way in small-signal

discretes products, allowing to develop automotive applications that

will drive the future.
