Humanoid robots pack dozens of compact, high torque actuators, sensors, and power electronics into human-scale limbs and joints — joints that must operate simultaneously within constrained mechanical envelopes while maintaining balance and fine manipulation.
Vishay's power MOSFETs drive the brushless motors inside joint actuators, while position sensors feed the fast, closed-loop control for humanoid balance. Our precision resistors, high power shunts, compact ceramic and tantalum capacitors, and industrial grade inductors fit the tight space constraints of robotic limbs, and optocouplers effectively isolate sensitive control electronics from the motor drive noise.
Behind humanoid robotics is The DNA of tech.®
