Abstract |
This paper reports about the implementation of a single-chip Smart-Power IC embedding
an 8-bit microcontroller, analog circuits for data processing as well as a full protected power element (an H-bridge DMOS power stage capable of 60V, 4A) and intended to directly control a hydraulic servo-valve. Optimized for automotive applications (active suspensions, power steering, servo-braking), it can be, for its versatility, used as well in others applications
like industrial, public works, etc. |
