Automobiles are increasingly using electronics to meet diverse and advanced needs, such as environmental countermeasures and improved safety and comfort. TDK supplies a wide variety of highly reliable in-vehicle electronic components, including noise control units for automotive LANs, magnets for HEV (hybrid electric vehicle) and EV (electric vehicle) drive motors, and sensors to detect oil temperature.

Interest in natural energy sources, such as wind and solar power generation, is increasing toward the realization of a sustainable society. TDK supplies various products that contribute to the diffusion and expansion of natural energy, such as capacitors, reactors, and other electronic components installed in inverters for wind/solar power systems, and powerful magnets for wind power systems.

TDK is also devoting significant effort to the development of high-frequency components for smart meters and bidirectional DC-DC converters, so as to contribute to the realization of next-generation smart grids.
