Allegro solutions inside the e-bike.
Personal mobility · Pedelec · e-MTB · Cargo
E-bikes are a sensor and current-sense problem — throttle, PAS/torque, brake cut-off, wheel speed, phase current, charger current, and encoder. Allegro ICs fit the mid-drive, hub, and downtube pack, and MAG walks the sockets directly with Illinois and Wisconsin OEM and design teams.
The A1335 dual-die CVH or A33230 sine/cosine is the design-in that wins mid-drive OEMs. For current sense, the ACS71240 covers cost and integration, while the CT455 steps in for contactless, high-bandwidth needs. On motor control, the A89212 brings a 90 V, Cortex-M4, sensorless FOC solution with −18 V transient protection — owning the control path, not just the sensors. And a single ATS19580 family covers wheel ABS, PAS steel-target sensing, and sprocket detection.

Passive power built to outlast the design.
Capacitors · Super Caps · Li-Ion Batteries — since 1970
Nichicon brings over five decades of passive-component depth to every MAG design review — aluminum electrolytic capacitors, double-layer super capacitors (EVerCAP), hybrid and conductive polymer series, large high-voltage films, and Li-Ion rechargeable battery cells. It's the line that shows up in the power stage of nearly everything MAG's partners build.
PCA polymer and GXC hybrid SMD series lead on ripple current and ESR; UTH/UTF radial and LHX/LGA snap-in electrolytics scale up to 450 VDC for high-voltage rails. See full specs below.
