Your car is wired. Multiplexed. A networked computing and communicating machine that senses the road, monitors its own engine and drive train, adjusts everything from seats to suspension to fuel injectors. Fifty or more microcontrollers feeding on constant streams of real-world information. Dozens of other specialized chips.National enables the world's major automakers to build cars with more convenience features, better performance and vastly improved safety. For example, we have a 70 percent share of the market for analog chips for antilock braking systems. We're working with airbag makers to design and build next-generation, 360-degree systems. And we don't stop there. National products monitor engine performance for better gas mileage and cleaner air. We keep you secure by creating chips that go into antitheft and remote keyless entry systems. webmaster@national.com Copyright © National Semiconductor Corporation.
