EUREKA RESEARCH NETWORK DEVELOPS HYBRID CIRCUIT INTEGRATION

BY KEITH NUTHALL
A GROUNDBREAKING starter motor-alternator, enabling cars to automatically and smoothly stop and start in congestion, has been developed by the Eureka research network. The i-StARS (NOTE - SPELLING IS CORRECT) project developed second-generation technology whose battery can power high numbers of charge/discharge cycles; and can inhibit the stop-start function or restart an engine if a charge level is too low.
