Diesel Glow Plug CONTROL

The sophistication of today’s modern engine management systems are driven by strict governmental regulation mandating increased fuel economy and engine performance while lowering harmful emissions. This has driven the industry need to develop improvements to diesel direct injection engine control systems and glow plug control. ST, with a strong portfolio of ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES (BCD for combining PRECISION ANALOG, power, DIGITAL and non-volatile MEMORY functions; VIPower for driving high current loads; Embedded FLASH 8/16/32-bit Microcontrollers for real-time control) coupled with extensive STANDARD product offering, is ready to meet the changing market demands.
