Our aim is to offer guidance on the ever-changing decision-making processes in the electronics sector and become the "go-to" guide for industry professionals looking to source top components.
When it comes to sourcing automotive-grade electronic components, engineers must be mindful not only of the availability of parts but also of their quality, reliability, and compliance with strict safety standards. The components used in vehicles, whether for engine control units (ECUs), infotainment systems, or advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), are crucial to the overall
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
Last month, we examined if the EV push could be unraveling. This month, I’ll explore evidence that indicates EVs are picking up momentum globally. In this counterpoint article, let’s forget about the new EPA regulations and mandates for now while taking in adoption rates, what’s driving EV demand, rapid technology advances, and just how easy
We’ll explore the evidence that suggests it is. Stay tuned for January’s piece, when we’ll dive into the technology working to make it happen. There’s increasing evidence that the Biden Administration’s EV push may unravel. The administration’s regulations seem to necessitate an increase in EV sales from 8.5% to 67% of all U.S. auto sales
The automotive industry has faced significant challenges due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on semiconductor chip availability, causing widespread disruptions across the sector and the global economy. However, as we approach mid-2023, the situation has stabilized, and the auto industry has adjusted to a new normal. While the shortage of semiconductor chips that
There’s an unprecedented supply chain transformation happening in the automotive industry. On the electric vehicle side (EVs), experts estimate that manufacturers will spend more than $1.2 trillion through 2030, creating millions of electric vehicles. However, the existing supply chain for internal combustion engines (ICE) still won’t disappear. There are two separate supply chains, and while
It’s an understatement to say there’s a global push for electric vehicles. While numbers are increasing, there are still underlying concerns regarding the availability of an E.V. infrastructure—including charging capabilities. We have several options when setting up charging opportunities, and from a logistics point of view, the globe is working in overdrive to provide sufficient
