Semi, Foxconn and liandian jointly released the semi auto IC master plan, which aims to provide complete automotive chip solutions through effective and close cooperation with Taiwan's automotive semiconductor supply chain, promote the layout of the global automotive chip market, and promote the innovative research and development of automotive manufacturers.
Semi, Foxconn and liandian jointly released the semi auto IC master plan, which aims to provide complete automotive chip solutions through effective and close cooperation with Taiwan's automotive semiconductor supply chain, promote the layout of the global automotive chip market, and promote the innovative research and development of automotive manufacturers.
Cao Guowei, President of semi Taiwan, said that the continuous shortage of automotive chips is accelerating the transformation of the entire automotive supply chain. Automobile manufacturers must strengthen cooperation and alliances with semiconductors and other high-tech supply chains to ensure adequate capacity supply and accelerate development. Innovative solutions.
Liu Yang, chairman of Foxconn, said that the auto IC master platform focuses on the IC field, and its MIH platform highlights the integration of modular and standardized components. The two complement each other and jointly play the greatest synergy to provide services to global automotive OEM manufacturers.
Mr. Liu went on to say that chips are the brain of cars. If Auto IC master can help launch the best chips, it means that cars will have the best brain to intelligently control case (Internet of vehicles, autonomous driving, shared services and electrification) operations. This is a market segment that can take advantage of the existing advantages of Taiwan's semiconductor industry.
He stressed that as an important semiconductor hub in the world, Taiwan has gathered top talents, created extremely high output value, and provided diversified automotive chips, which has benefited a lot from the vigorous development of global new energy vehicles.
Xuanxuan, honorary vice chairman of liandian, also pointed out that cars need more chips in the future. An electric vehicle uses more than 250 chips, while traditional fuel vehicles need 40 chips. Taiwan's semiconductor manufacturers should work together to build an integrated ecosystem and tap huge business opportunities through the auto IC master program.
In fact, according to industry insiders, Taiwan takes automotive applications as the main growth driver in different semiconductor fields, including OEM, back-end processing, IC design, and even lead frames, probe cards, and PCBs. According to the source, major contract manufacturers including TSMC, liandian and vis, as well as leading IC design companies Lianyong microelectronics and Ruiyu semiconductor, have become important members of the global automotive semiconductor supply chain.
For example, TSMC has received a large number of chip production orders for the joint venture electric vehicle brands of Sony and Honda, and continues to manufacture automotive chips for IDMS such as Infineon, NXP, Renesas, Texas Instruments and Italian French semiconductor. Liandian and NUCTECH also said that their contribution to the revenue of automotive chips is rising steadily.
At the same time, Ruiyu has obtained orders for Ethernet chips for cars from Tesla, Hyundai Motor, Mercedes Benz, BMW, Honda and Toyota, and Lianyong has also joined the supply chain of BMW electric vehicles with its car chips, the source said.
Taiwan's diode, MOSFET, lead frame and other component manufacturers have also deployed automotive applications, including actron technology, PANJIT international, Eris technology, SDI, Chang Wah Technology, which are expected to obtain greater growth momentum with the support of auto IC master, the source said, and the MIH platform.
