Author: Fern Yoon, Director, Automotive System Engineering and Marketing, Texas Instruments From bumper to bumper and roof to wheels, there is more innovative, efficient semiconductor technology in cars than ever before. Today’s vehicles can have anywhere from 200 to 2,000 semiconductors powering, sensing, and processing information that keeps us safe. The latest semiconductor innovations are
Author: Frank Cavallaro, CEO, A2 Global Electronics Electric vehicle (EV) sales have slowed. A lack of charging infrastructure, coupled with high prices, is holding back widespread adoption. According to reports from automakers released in April, US sales of electric vehicles grew only 2.7% during the first quarter of this year, far below the 47% growth
Author: Ole-Fredrik Morken, Executive Vice President of Supply Chain, Nordic Semiconductor Wireless connectivity underpins everything, including the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI). But advanced wireless devices demand an equally advanced supply chain, one that may be forced to use AI itself. Compare a modern Bluetooth chip today to one from just over
