Microstaq - Innovations that flow

Automotive manufacturers are constantly searching for ways to increase fuel economy, and while many technology advances in recent years have pushed internal combustion engine and electric vehicle technology forward, the drivetrain has largely been ignored.

The Microstaq Silicon Hydraulic Valve (SHV) is uniquely suited to bring high value to automotive drivetrain applications including transmissions, transfers cases, and differentials thanks to incredible versatility and endurance, not to mention economy of size. Hermetically sealed for reliability, the Microstaq SHV performs reliably at extreme temperatures and in harsh environment operations.

In fact, whether being driven by PWM signal or current duty cycle, the valve can be mounted on a diverse array of substrates ranging from metal to ceramic, plastic or glass for added design flexibility as well as flow control.

The miniature size and wide application potential of Microstaq opens a whole new genre in performance and fabrication opportunities for automotive engineers.
