Ebook: Advanced Microsystems for Automotive Applications 2001

Microsystems are an important success factor in the automobile industry. In order to fulfil the customers'requests for safety convenience and vehicle economy, and to satisfy environmental requirements, microsystems are becoming indispensable. Thus a large number of microsystem applications came into the discussion. With the international conference AMAA 2001, VDI/VDE-IT provides a platform for the discussion of all MST relevant components for automotive applications. The conference proceedings gather the papers by authors from automobile suppliers and manufacrurers.
