Hence, the automotive industry's expansion propels the automotive comparators market's growth.
Leading companies in the automotive comparators sector are concentrating on developing innovative offerings, such as isolated comparators, to maintain their market presence. Isolated comparators are electronic devices employed in automotive systems to compare two voltages while ensuring electrical isolation between input and output. This isolation is vital for safeguarding sensitive components and ensuring dependable operation across diverse automotive applications. For instance, in February 2024, Novosense SSE, a semiconductor firm based in China, introduced the NSI22C1x series of isolated comparators. These comparators leverage capacitive isolation technology to deliver rapid, high-voltage monitoring and customizable protection thresholds, rendering them suitable for demanding industrial and automotive environments. Capable of detecting overcurrent, overvoltage, overtemperature, undervoltage, and zero-crossing events, these comparators offer advanced functionality.
