The ams OSRAM AS8510 was originally designed for automotive battery management applications. It can be used either in low side or high side applications. The AS8510 itself can also be used without SBC (System Basis Chip) support, such as a current or a current and voltage sensor for high voltage traction batteries. Therefore all current and future battery management applications can be covered. Torque measurement is one further automotive application where the AS8510 fits very well.
