The Stop Start Revolution - New Generation Rotating Electrics

The Stop Start Revolution - New Generation Rotating Electrics.

The demand on vehicle manufacturers to meet ever stricter emissions levels has led to innovative advancements in vehicle starting and charging systems. The latest i-StARS Starter-Alternator combines the function of two units but built into one.

The i-StARS starter-alternator is installed in place of an alternator. The combustion engine is started immediately and silently thanks to the belt that permanently links the system to the crankshaft. The alternator mode features a new technology that improves the electrical efficiency of the system. In addition, the integrated control electronics make it easier to package the system on the combustion engine.

The i-StARS starter-alternator optimises the Stop-Start strategy required by the vehicle manufacturer, enabling the engine to be switched  off and restarted before the vehicle has reached a complete standstill. Restarting is almost instantaneous (400 msec), silent and without vibration. The system is compatible with all manual and automatic transmissions.

AA8388 Known as LIN controlled alternator, A LIN (Local Interconnect Network), is a serial network method for the connection of devices in automotive applications. Basically, the alternator is controlled externally, not by an internal regulator.
