Murata has co-developed a new generation of RFID modules with Michelin that are embedded into tires. The robust passive RFID tags require no external power supply and will continue to operate while being driven on for extremely high mileages. This simple yet elegant technology delivers low cost and easy tire traceability throughout its entire lifespan, […]

Murata introduces the ultra-thin LW reversed, low equivalent series inductor (ESL) multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) with a capacitance value of 1.0 µF ±20% for 4 Vdc-rated automotive applications. With a 0204 inch size (0.5 × 1.0 mm) footprint and maximum thickness of just 0.22 mm, the LLC152D70G105ME01 decoupling capacitor can be implemented on the back of […]

Murata has announced the release of the BLM18KN_EH series of ferrite chip beads for noise suppression in power lines at temperatures up to 175°C. Target applications are automotive equipment such as engine and transmission electronic control units (ECUs) and turbo motor controllers, with the components meeting AEC-Q200 qualification requirements. As electrification advances, the demand for […]

Murata today announced the BLM18SP_SH1 series of surface mount ‘chip’ ferrite beads constructed in a 1608 (1.6 mm × 0.8 mm) package designed specifically for automotive applications. As the amount of electronics-based automotive systems continues to increase, so does the need to reduce the potential for electromagnetic interference to impact safe operation. Many of the new […]
