The 2nd Infineon Automotive Innovation Summit and 11th Automotive Electronics developers Conference (IACE) was held in Suzhou on June 28th.
With the theme of “leadership transition”, more than 1300 industry elites from the upstream and downstream of the automotive industry chain gathered to discuss such topics as intelligent network connection, intelligent driving, electrification and artificial intelligence.
Under the general trend of low carbon and digitalization, the opportunities and challenges faced by the automotive industry have built an important bridge for cross-border communication between the upstream and downstream industrial chains such as complete vehicles, spare parts and automotive semiconductors.
The second Infineon Automotive Innovation Summit and the 11th Automotive Electronics developers Conference, China’s automobile market, especially new energy vehicles, has been growing rapidly in recent years.
According to the statistics of the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, China’s production and sales of new energy vehicles accounted for more than 60% of the world’s production and sales in 2023, ranking first in the world for nine consecutive years.
Under such a growth trend, the trend of electrification, networking and intelligence of the automobile is promoting the supply chain system from the traditional pyramid vertical division of labor to the flat grid division of labor, which also puts forward higher requirements for the demand understanding ability and market response ability of automotive semiconductor manufacturers.
Pan Dawei, senior vice president and president of Infineon Technology Greater China and head of Infineon’s consumer, computing and communications business in Greater China, said: “Infineon sees China as a strategic market with growth potential in low-carbon and digital areas, especially in high-value areas such as electric vehicles and renewable energy.
Automotive electronics accounted for 51% of the company’s global revenue in fiscal 2023.
As one of the most sustainable semiconductor manufacturers in the world, Infineon has always adhered to the customer-centered service concept, building a ‘local ecosystem with global service capabilities and increasing customer value’ and working with partners.
work together to promote the process of low carbon and digitization.
” Pan Dawei, global senior vice president and president of Infineon Technology Greater China, and head of Infineon Technology consumption, Computing and Communications in Greater China.
Cao Yanfei, senior vice president of Infineon Technology and head of Infineon Automotive Business in Greater China, said: “China is leading the global automotive low-carbon and digital transformation trend.
China’s automotive semiconductor market is growing rapidly in applications such as new energy vehicles, self-driving and domain controllers.
As the world’s largest supplier of automotive semiconductors, Infineon is always committed to providing strong momentum for the sustainable development of China’s automotive industry.
With system-level solutions and a broad product portfolio, Infineon continues to strengthen its market competitiveness while deepening its partnership, and will continue to help Chinese automakers continue to lead the process of ‘software-defined cars’.
” Cao Yanfei, senior vice president of Infineon Technology and head of Infineon Automotive Business in Greater China, as the world’s leading automotive semiconductor manufacturer, Infineon has been engaged in the field of automotive semiconductors for many years.
In 2023, it ranks first in the global automotive electronics, automotive power devices, automotive microcontrollers and other fields.
Infineon’s semiconductor products are an important part of a variety of key automotive applications, including driving assistance and safety systems, power transmission and battery management systems, in-vehicle infotainment systems and safety functions.
Infineon always insists on meeting the latest needs of the market through innovation.
During the IACE Summit, Infineon officially launched its next generation 32-bit microcontroller AURIX ™TC4x for Greater China.
AURIX ™TC4x is the third-generation high-performance MCU product developed by Infineon based on its understanding of customer, market, application and technology development trends.
Looking to the future, microcontrollers can help cars become smarter, with more efficient processing capabilities and broader and more secure network connections to adapt to the new EE architecture and faster technology iterations, resulting in further performance improvements in parallel processing units, supporting hardware virtualization, functional security, information security, etc.
It meets the new requirements of the application development of electric vehicles, domain controllers / area controllers, intelligent driving, radar, body / network chassis, etc.
By 2024, Infineon has delivered more than 1 billion pieces of high-quality AURIX ™products to the global market, covering more than 50 mainstream automotive brands and 4 major automotive applications, which have been recognized by customers and third-party organizations in the industry.
Today, Infineon has built a complete and rich automotive electronic ecosystem in Greater China with its extensive global layout and continuous efforts in the local market.
During the keynote speech of the summit, dozens of important guests from well-known OEM manufacturers, Tier 1 enterprises, well-known universities and other fields shared their highlights around key issues such as industry trends, technological innovation, ecological cooperation and supply chain management.
Their insights provided participants with valuable industry insights.
Looking to the future, in order to further promote technology and service innovation and deepen integration with the local industry, Infineon launched and established the “Dandelion Club” in Greater China in early 2024, especially for start-ups and small and medium-sized enterprises in the mass market.
The establishment of this new platform aims to accelerate the innovation and upgrading of technology and services, so as to more effectively promote the deep integration of the Infineon automotive electronic ecosystem with the local automotive industry, and provide strong support for the sustainable development of the local automotive industry.
During the current IACE Summit, a total of 5 enterprises became the first founding members of the “Dandelion Club” and formally joined this dynamic cooperation platform.
In addition, the summit also set up an exhibition area with a total area of more than 3000 square meters, showcasing more than 100 sets of innovative products and solutions from Infineon and its local partners, including HUD head-up display system solutions, front and rear left and right domain controllers based on TC4x series, ITMS integrated thermal management system, etc.
The exhibits cover the areas of car body and intelligent network connection system, power and new energy system, chassis and intelligent driving system, storage system and so on.
At the same time, more than 20 new energy exhibition vehicles from different brands were also displayed at the scene.
Innovation leads the transition of the industry and cooperation to promote common development.
In the future, Infineon will continue to promote the sustainable development process of low carbon and digitalization, continue to strengthen its leading position in the automotive semiconductor market through continuous innovation, and continue to promote the automotive industry to evolve towards a more environmentally friendly, safer and smarter direction through more open and close cooperation with local biosphere partners, so as to promote the sustainability of the automotive industry.
