Digitization and a forward-thinking system architectures play a huge role when designing of on-board electrical systems. Modern vehicles and machines have numerous sensors and communication interfaces. CAN bus technology and the SAE J1939 network protocol based on the CAN 2.0B specification are standard for networking components in all kinds of commercial vehicles.

(read more)As a panelbuilder, you are very familiar with blade or glass fuses as popular forms of circuit protection. Both types are inexpensive and easy to install in a control panel, however, these solutions have their drawbacks. When a fuse blows, it must be replaced. Costs arising from equipment damage or stoppage while searching for the correct replacement fuse can be expensive.
(read more)Systematically reducing components can help you design more cost-effective equipment, increase the overall reliability, and save space. E-T-A’s power entry modules combine up to five functions in a single component: a C14/C20 appliance inlet, resettable overcurrent protection, an ON/OFF switch, a line filter and an optional undervoltage release, remote trip or auxiliary switch.
(read more)The demand for smarter, technology based vehicles continues to increase the number of loads to monitor and protect within the power architecture. This quickly leads to large, heavy, and complex cable harnesses. The SCS3000 and SCS1000 are extremely compact power distribution systems with integrated logic. These modules combine multiple logic functions into one very small package.
(read more)One of the primary goals of design engineers today is to systematically reduce components. This is one of the keys to developing cost-efficient designs. In addition, fewer components, in most cases, reduce the amount of space required allowing engineers to design more compact and competitive equipment.
