Airbags
An airbag is a passive safety system designed to inflate a fabric bag to absorb impact in the event of an automobile collision in order to protect vehicle occupants.
A microcontroller monitors a number of sensors such as G sensors, front sensors and satellite sensors. When a predefined threshold is exceeded, it sends a signal to trigger the ignition of the airbag.
Traditionally, potentially life-threatening systems have used a dual-core architecture in which a submicrocontroller monitors the working of the main microcontroller to ensure fail-safe operation.
Toshiba provides a unique single-core solution for fail-safe operations. In addition, Toshiba's dual-core architecture allows for fail-operational and fault-tolerant capabilities.
Toshiba also offers custom solutions for high-quality and high-performance hybrid devices that integrate digital, analog and power circuits. Various IP cores can be mixed according to customer needs, including interface units, power drivers and large logic blocks. Toshiba prides itself on having years of experience and a proven track record.
