About this episode
This episode discusses the advantages of Renesas' Automotive GreenPAK in vehicle electronics and its impact on component integration.
Altium Develop gives your entire electronics team — engineers, procurement, and manufacturers — real-time visibility into your PCB designs and supply chain, all in one platform: https://www.altium.com/develop?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=ontrack-podcast&utm_content=greenpak-for-automotive-reliability-integration-real-world-demos Renesas' Automotive GreenPAK is a configurable mixed-signal IC that's changing how engineers approach component integration in vehicle electronics. In this episode of the Altium OnTrack podcast, host Zach Peterson sits down with Michele Deviato, Senior Product Marketing Manager at Renesas, and Oleh Saphia, Applications Engineering Manager at Renesas, to break down what truly separates automotive-grade components from their industrial counterparts. Spoiler: it's far more than just temperature range. AEC-Q100 qualification, vibration-resistant packaging, minimum pin pitch requirements, and rigorous reliability testing all play a critical role — and GreenPAK is built to meet every one of them. Beyond the spec sheet, this episode dives into why Automotive GreenPAK is gaining rapid adoption across OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers — and…
