ASRA will pursue the high level of safety and reliability required for automobiles by enabling automakers to play a central role. In addition, by pooling the technology and know-how of electrical components and semiconductor companies, ASRA will work on the practical application of cutting-edge technologies. Specifically, ASRA plans to research and develop SoCs for automobiles using chiplet technology and combining different semiconductor types.
1) Higher performance and versatility.
(2) Higher yield.
Chips (3) Timely commercialization of function- and performance-optimized SoCs as per the requirements of the end-user (automotive company).
ASRA aims to establish in-vehicle chip technology by 2028 and install SoCs in production vehicles from 2030. ASRA will combine Japan's technological capabilities and experience in automobiles, electrical components, and semiconductors to promote domestic and foreign cooperation as a world-leading technology research group in collaboration with industry, academia, and academia.
