Automotive Smart Actuator and Micro-Motor Research Highlights Shift Toward Edge Computing, 48V Systems and Brushless Motors

Automotive zonal architecture is accelerating the development of smart actuators, edge computing, 48V electrical systems and brushless DC motors. As vehicle electrical and electronic architectures transition from distributed and domain-based designs to central computing with zonal control, automakers and suppliers are pursuing more integrated, efficient and scalable actuator technologies.

Core components of automotive zonal architecture include central computing units, zone control units, edge nodes, high-speed communication networks, power distribution modules, software platforms and network management systems. Within this framework, smart actuators combine motor actuation with processing, communication, drive electronics and position feedback. This integration supports local control, condition monitoring, fault diagnosis and rapid response while reducing connections between electronic control units and motors.

Two primary edge-computing paths are emerging. Remote-controlled edge nodes transfer control logic to a central computing platform or zone controller while retaining essential input and output functions at the endpoint. Smart edge nodes incorporate a lightweight microcontroller or dedicated processing unit within the actuator, enabling local data processing and real-time closed-loop control. Typical functions include motor pulse-width modulation, current monitoring, position feedback and anti-pinch algorithms.

Deploying motor-control algorithms at the actuator level can improve response times, reduce the computing burden on zone controllers and strengthen functional safety isolation. Highly integrated motor-drive system-on-chip products support this transition by combining microcontrollers, power management, CAN or LIN communication, gate drivers and signal-processing functions. These chips are increasingly relevant to automotive actuators, electronic pumps, cooling fans, valves and other intelligent electric vehicle systems.

Edge communication will continue to use established automotive networking technologies, including CAN, CAN FD and FlexRay, for many cost-sensitive and lower-speed applications. Within zonal architectures, competition for approximately 10 Mbps edge connectivity is expected to focus on 10BASE-T1S and CAN XL as vehicle manufacturers balance bandwidth, latency, reliability and cost.

Smart actuators are expanding across vehicle body, chassis, thermal management and powertrain applications. Key use cases include electronic air vents, thermal expansion valves, concealed door handles, powered charging-port covers, intelligent seat adjustment, active grille shutters, rotating or lifting displays, adaptive lighting, electric power steering, brake actuation and active suspension.

Zonal control architecture creates a strong case for distributing basic control functions to intelligent endpoints. If zone control units directly manage every stepping motor, brushless motor and position-feedback loop, software complexity, code volume and real-time processing requirements can increase substantially. Direct motor connections can also shift wiring concentration from the vehicle center to individual zones rather than delivering comprehensive harness simplification.

Smart actuators address these challenges by processing execution commands closer to the physical function. They can simplify wiring, improve reliability and make vehicle platforms easier to scale. New features may be introduced by connecting compatible actuators to the relevant zone without extensive hardware redesign or rewiring.

Nidec's integrated electric power steering product demonstrates this approach by combining the electronic control unit and steering motor. The system can compensate for road-surface torque feedback, adjust steering assistance according to vehicle speed and provide greater assistance during parking or low-speed maneuvers.

48V Automotive Electrical Systems Prioritize High-Power Actuators

The transition from 12V to 48V automotive power distribution is expected to begin with high-power loads. Current vehicle platforms commonly use mixed 12V and 48V networks, requiring redesigned motors, insulation, voltage-resistant components and optimized power-management integration.

Loads rated at approximately 50W or higher can gain more substantial benefits from 48V operation, including reduced current, smaller cable dimensions, lower wiring weight and improved system efficiency. Priority applications include cooling fans, blowers, water pumps, steering motors, active suspension, braking systems and electric compressors. Medium-power applications such as seat motors and windshield wipers may migrate gradually, while low-power loads may remain at 12V where conversion offers limited economic or efficiency benefits.

Johnson Electric's 48V cooling fan portfolio illustrates the range of options available for thermal management. Its brushless motor platform covers 100W to 1,500W across 12V and 48V configurations, while its brushed motor platform covers 80W to 500W. Available designs support different fan assemblies, blade configurations, packaging requirements and control-electronics options.

Marelli's fully active suspension solution further demonstrates the role of 48V smart actuators. The system uses four electromechanical actuators, each incorporating a 48V brushless motor and reduction gear. A central control unit analyzes acceleration, suspension travel, steering angle, braking and torque-demand signals, while embedded actuator algorithms calculate motor-current targets and apply the required force to each suspension arm.

Brushless DC Motors Gain Share in High-Performance Automotive Applications

Brushless DC motors are increasingly preferred for applications requiring high efficiency, long service life, low noise and precise speed or position control. Their control electronics and algorithms are more complex than those used for brushed motors, resulting in higher costs. Consequently, adoption remains strongest in mid-range and premium vehicles with demanding cockpit, chassis and thermal-management requirements.

Major automotive motor suppliers now offer brushless solutions for electric power steering, steer-by-wire, electromechanical braking, air suspension, electronic water and oil pumps, cooling fans, windshield wipers and seat systems. Topband Motor's BL3040 inner-rotor brushless DC motor, designed for rotating and lifting vehicle displays, delivers energy conversion efficiency of up to 75%, along with low cogging torque, high torque output and reduced noise and vibration.

Brose also uses a proprietary brushless motor in its electric long-seat-slide system. Motor control supports precise movement, reduced operating noise, soft start and stop, anti-pinch protection and easier entry functions.

As zonal vehicle architecture advances, smart automotive actuators, 48V micro-motors and brushless motor platforms are positioned to play a larger role in vehicle electrification. Their integration can reduce wiring complexity, distribute computing resources, improve energy efficiency and support faster deployment of intelligent vehicle functions.
