AEC-Q compliant assembly option for current sensors streamlines qualification processes

The SSA-2 Series analog current sensors from Bourns are now available with an AEC-Q compliant components assembly option for high-reliability power system designs. The sensors provide analog current measurement with low insertion loss, electrically isolated signal output, integrated shunt and signal conditioning and are intended for applications such as DC-DC converters, battery management systems, motor drives, industrial power controls and automotive power distribution units. The AEC-Q compliant assembly option is intended to support qualification workflows in automotive, industrial and energy applications, including systems subject to temperature cycling, vibration and mechanical shock. Bourns said the sensors are available now, with ordering information and samples offered through the company.
