Autonomous driving systems are extremely complex; they tightly integrate many technologies, including sensing, localization, perception, decision making, as well as the smooth interactions with cloud platforms for high-definition (HD) map generation and data storage.
3 Ways Wide-Bandgap Semiconductors Improve Electric Vehicle Performance
Engineers continually look for feasible ways to improve electric vehicles (EVs) as they become more in-demand. One increasingly frequent approach is to use wide-bandgap semiconductors in their design. Here are some compelling examples of how these components improve EV performance.
Panel-Level Heterogeneous Integration Technology for Analog ICs
Micro-transfer printing, a massively parallel pick-and-place process, may be used to produce HI analog ICs comprised of large arrays of ultra-thin separately manufactured components interconnected using redistribution layer technology.
Time-Resolved, In-Line Airborne Particle Sensing
IPS and wireless wafer/reticle format counters can detect particulate contamination events exactly when and where they occur, with results available in real-time, or stored for later analysis.
How Can a Digital Twin Help Semiconductor Systems Design?
A digital twin is a virtual, extremely detailed version of a physical asset. People create them as single components and all the way up to entire factories. Doing so can let them see the impact of certain decisions before moving ahead with them in real life.
