Hitachi Automotive Systems Americas, Inc.'s mass air flow sensor is a realization of a strong lineup to accommodate market technical demand. Hitachi Automotive Systems Americas, Inc. has acquired the largest share of the MAFS market.

Hitachi Automotive Systems Americas, Inc. has expanded our line-up of mass air flow sensors into a "natural gas" mass flow sensor. These sensors are used on truck fleets running "natural gas" as fuel.

Pressure sensors for automobiles have been used to measure variables such as engine control, fuel pressure, and brake oil pressure. In recent years, when compared with the detection of collisions from shock, the detection of pressure inside doors has shown to be superior in terms of both accuracy and speed, and so pressure sensors are increasingly being adopted. This is a small, lightweight semi-conductor board strain gauge type pressure sensor. It can be used to measure pressure in many automotive applications.

• Small standard SOP16 package providing 3 axis inertial information
• Low consumption current, give low system cost
• Wide operating temperature range
• Excellent environmental vibration immunity
• High installment flexibility as well as reliability

Combined sensor for vehicle control are currently being developed for the vehicle stability control system. The vehicle electrical stability control system uses steering angle, automobile angular rate (rotation), acceleration, and other information, which it compares in order to determine the vehicle’s skidding.
