Electronic Transmission Controls

The evolution of the automotive transmission has changed rapidly in the last decade, partly due to the advantages of highly sophisticated electronic controls. This evolution has resulted in modern automatic transmissions that offer more control, stability, and convenience to the driver.

Electronic Transmission Controls contains 65 technical papers from SAE and other international organizations written since 1995 on this rapidly growing area of automotive electronics.
