Infineon Applied sciences AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) combines its confirmed automotive experience with its patented glass-silicon-glass MEMS sensor for the automotive tire strain monitoring system (TPMS) market to launch the XENSIV™ SP49 tire strain monitoring sensor. The sensor integrates MEMS sensors and ASIC and gives sensible tire options that allow superior tire strain monitoring methods. It includes a highly effective 32-bit Arm® M0+ core, a big flash reminiscence and RAM, Low Energy Monitoring (LPM), and optimized quick acceleration sensing. The SP49 is ideally fitted to clever tire features reminiscent of on-tire auto-position sensing, tire inflation help, tire blowout detection, and cargo detection.

The SP49 is a pin-to-pin substitute for Infineon’s final technology SP40 TPMS merchandise. With its {hardware} grasp/slave I²C interface and software-simulated UART, SPI and PWM interfaces, the SP49 is good for sub-1GHz and scalable for BLE TPMS. Obtainable at ASIL-A, the sensor gives a excessive stage of integration and is optimized to carry out all features required to implement a contemporary TPMS module. With its built-in microcontroller, sensors and handy peripherals, the SP49 requires just a few passive elements to type a whole TPMS sensor unit. The machine is designed for low energy consumption, making it preferrred for battery-powered functions.

Along with the power to generate a wake-up from the built-in interval timer, the SP49 merchandise are appropriate for stand-alone distant strain sensing options that require low energy consumption. In these functions, the LF receiver with wake-up functionality and best-in-class sensitivity permits on-demand measurements.
