plus enhanced safety

German translation: bei gleichzeitig erhöhter Sicherheit

English term or phrase: plus enhanced safety
The original text is:
High performance meets super low power — plus enhanced safety

It is a text written as an advertisement for a newly introduced MCU.

In German, do you use the word 'plus' ? I have used 'noch dazu' instead:
Hohe Leistung mit Niedrigststromverbrauch – noch dazu, erweiterte Sicherheit

Thank you for your help.

German translation:bei gleichzeitig erhöhter Sicherheit
Explanation:
plus really means ´as an added feature´, the two previously decribed qualities are probably the strong technical advantages of your product. Maybe you prefer to use ´und darüberhinaus erhöhte Sicherheit´, but that depends on your context.

bei zusätzlich verbesserter Sicherheit


Explanation:
This is only a different way to translate it and how I would do it. I agree with Renata, that you could use "plus" as well, but it doesn't really suit your context here in my opinion.

agree  Renata von Koerber: yeahh. also here the translator has taken out the verb, so the balance of the arguments is in slight danger if the ´plus´has more weight than the technical arguments.
