As of January 1st, Aly Mashaly has succeeded Günter Richard as Director of ROHM’s European Application and Technical Solution Center (ATSC). Günter Richard has retired after 32 years working for ROHM.
ROHM has recently announced the adoption of its new 4th Generation SiC MOSFETs and gate driver ICs in electric vehicle inverters from Hitachi Astemo, Ltd, a leading Japanese automotive parts manufacturer.
ROHM has signed a joint development agreement with Mazda Motor Corporation (Mazda) and Imasen Electric Industrial Co., Ltd., (Imasen) for inverters and SiC power modules to be used in the electric drive units of electric vehicles, including e-Axle.
ROHM developed automotive-grade LDO regulator ICs: the BUxxJA3DG-C series (BU12JA3DG-C, BU15JA3DG-C, BU18JA3DG-C, BU25JA3DG-C, BU30JA3DG-C, BU33JA3DG-C). The devices are designed for automotive applications such as sensors for ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) which have become smaller and more powerful.
ROHM Semiconductor have been collaborating for more than ten years with regards to the implementation of silicon carbide (SiC) inside power modules. Recently, ROHM’s latest 4th generation of SiC MOSFETs has been fully qualified in SEMIKRON’s eMPack® modules for automotive use. Hence, both companies serve worldwide customers’ needs.
