Airbag sensor

TRW's Gen 5E crash sensor contains dual-stage airbag inflator interfaces as well as a crash-severity algorithm and buckle-switch sensing to provide staged inflation capabilities. Its firing squib configuration will allow for personalized deployment of all airbags and pre-tensioners. The unit is compatible with the newly developed "smart" side-impact airbag sensor, which has onboard crash-discrimination capability.
