ABSTRACT:
The automotive industry is currently at the crossroads of a technological revolution, with ADAS standing as a beacon of innovation. However, the journey towards safer roads has encountered an unexpected obstacle — the global shortage of semiconductor chips.  This presentation will discuss relationship between semiconductor components and ADAS, unraveling the profound impact of the shortage on OEMs and the consequent evolution of sourcing strategies.
At the heart of ADAS lies the relation between sensors and semiconductor chips. This presentation will explain the increasing role of semiconductor chips in cameras, radar, and LiDAR. We will compare the semiconductor content between these three main sensors. We will also explore the need of semiconductors for the computing needs to process data and put it in relation with the level autonomy of vehicles.
In response to the semiconductor shortage that pushed OEMs to halt production and to delay launches, OEMs are forced to adopt novel and resilient sourcing strategies. In this part, we will explore the approaches undertaken by leading automotive manufacturers to secure a stable supply of semiconductor components. From diversifying suppliers to fostering closer collaborations with semiconductor manufacturers, we will show the strategic shifts that are reshaping the dynamics of the automotive supply chain.
To avoid similar issues in the future, we will give insights on how the industry is preparing. This will be linked to strong investments from the different governments over the world, to the redesign trend pushed by foundries. We will also show the behavior of China in investing into fabs dedicated to chips using mature technology nodes.
