LPG Engine Control  

The growing demand for engines with reduced fuel costs or tax and mobility incentive schemes implemented in many countries has pushed car manufacturers to develop systems running on alternative fuels.   Gasoline internal combustion engines running on liquid petroleum gas (LPG) are based on proven technologies and typically have lower emissions and lower fuel costs than gasoline and diesel vehicles.

 LPG is often used in bi-fuel vehicles, where it can be used alternatively with gasoline or diesel.

We have a wide and comprehensive offer including SPC5 32-bit microcontrollers and specifically designed system basis chips (SBC) that combine voltage regulators for the various DC rails, bus interface ICs for the most common standards including CAN, ISO 9141 K-line, variable reluctance sensors (VRS) and high- and low-side drivers.
