Power Inductors for Automotive Applications

Over the next 10 to 15 years, countries around the world will be working to reduce their CO2 emissions to levels mandated by their governmental regulatory agencies. The transportation sector has received a great deal of attention due to its overall contribution to CO2 emissions, its rapid expected growth rate – particularly in emerging markets – and the opportunities for technology to help reduce those emissions. The European Union has set an aggressive CO2 emission target of 95 g/Km by 2020 while China’s 2020 target is 117 g/Km, and the United States has a 2025 target of 97 g/Km.
