Today’s car front and rear lighting systems are typically custom-shaped PCBs assembled with high-power LEDs. Some products contain LED arrays that intelligently switch their elements on and off.
When these arrays are connected to a camera, they can track an approaching vehicle and turn off specific LEDs. Thereby it prevents the dazzling of the incoming vehicle drivers.
Our Task and Challenge
Fast Job Execution in Line with Industrial Standards
When the new lighting system is being designed, tens of various printed circuit boards need to be designed. The boards differ in shapes, dimensions, and mechanical restrictions.
Different customers have various placement and thermal constraints. We deliver new sets of PCBs every time a new lighting technology system is requested.
Consilia keeps the high speed of the design process, keeps catering to all constraints.
Solution
PCB Design in Automotive Branch
Consilia continues providing PCB layout and DFM (Design for Manufacturing) support for the lighting systems. Usually, seamless production and low material cost are of high importance.
Business Value
Optimized Cost and Performance
PCBs designed by Consilia are top-notch automotive lighting systems optimized for emission radiation. The systems contain tightly packed control and power circuits carefully tuned for performance.
How It Is Made
Customized Design for High Volumes
The automotive lighting boards that we design are mostly 2-layer printed circuit boards. The volume production is counted in 100,000s, so there is a strong focus on cost-optimized design.
The boards must conform to tightly constrained automotive layout specifications that count tens of pages.
Luckily, after years of work for the automotive industry electronic components and supported PCB manufacturing, we know the constraints by heart.
