This capability is particularly significant as it addresses challenges that photorelays face, Toshiba noted.
In line with
industry standards
, the TLX9920 complies with the AEC-Q101 qualification, ensuring it meets the reliability requirements for automotive electronic components. its design features an isolation voltage of 5000Vrms and a creepage distance exceeding 8mm, surpassing the international IEC 60664-1 standards for insulation coordination.
This launch comes at a time when automotive manufacturers increasingly adopt SSRs to cater to the evolving technological demands of modern vehicles. Toshiba reiterated its commitment to contributing to safer and more sustainable automotive systems through continuous innovation.
The company is focusing on expanding its market presence by enhancing partnerships with leading automotive manufacturers. This strategy aims to integrate the TLX9920 into a broader range of automotive applications, ensuring that Toshiba remains at the forefront of technological advancements.
