Enabling uncrashable vehicles: Indie Semiconductor’s solutions to the Autotech Revolution

Automotive technology’s innovations have been enabled strongly by semiconductors. As vehicles add more and more electronics, demand for ICs will steadily increase and provide a long-term growth path for the industry. Even now we see the impact of chips in the current automotive supply chain.

The semiconductor industry enables this push by allowing the consolidation of multiple functions into a single ASIC device, offering the end-customer a seamless experience in the vehicle. indie Semiconductor offers a wide variety of state-of-the-art solutions for vehicles including: ADAS/Autonomous, Connectivity, User Experience and Vehicle Electrification applications. Automotive System on a Chip (SOC) solutions require multi-functional teams with expertise in Digital and Analog design and verification, Software development, product and test engineering as well as system validation. In this talk we will review some of the solutions indie Semiconductor has for the automotive industry, as well as potential job opportunities for students.
