- Engine Management IC is the core processing unit for the engine management unit. It plays an important role in collecting, analyzing, processing, and executing the data it receives from various sub-systems. This IC collects real-time data or input from various engine sensors and responds and controls various actuators, ignition timing, variable valve timing, etc.
- ICs are the brain of an engine and hence, are indispensable components of the engine control unit in today’s era. Various sensors collect data and provide a good mix between power, fuel consumption, and emission values, thus providing optimal fuel injection.
- ECUs are presently being used by every OEM, controlling a series of actuators on an internal combustion engine to ensure optimal engine performance at all times, thereby improving the performance, economy, and reliability of vehicles.
