Autonomous Driving LevelsLevel 3 available today

Level 0 Level 1-2 Level 3 Level 4 Level 5

Driver only / assisted: full-time performance by the human driver.

Driver controls the automated functions.

System controls its functional borders and hands over time delayed to driver, when those are reached.

Within a specific use-case the system can master all tasks on its own.

System can master all tasks in all situations on its own. No driver necessary.

Demand and Usecases

Is there any market and demand?

Design

How can autonomous transportation look like?

Electronics Architecture/ Infrastructure

Today‘s vehicle electronics architecture and infrastructure needs further development

Computing units and Sensors (new, more)

„Senses and brains“ are the major fields of work

Ingredients for a successfull storyKey factors for realization of the future mobility experience

2013: a trunk full of computers 2017: one small box does it all

2021 and beyond: massive demand for more!Dr. André Blum, AUDI AG | 2018-04-26 | SOI Silicon Valley Symposium, Santa Clara, CA

Ultra low voltage operation

down to 0.4V by corner trimming/ bias trimming

>70% power reduction possible

Performance gain

by corner trimming/ bias trimming

„more bang for the buck“

Dynamic switching between situation specific optimum operating points

High performance ADAS systems: Not always need for 100% performance application/ situation adaptive biasing?

New applications and usecases

due to new ultra low power sensors and microcontrollers (acoustic, MEMS, optical/ light,…)

…and what‘s the role of FD-SOI in this story?Key benefits

>25 project partners all along the value chain

(Opportunity to Carry European Autonomous driviNgfurther with FDSOI technology up to 12nm node)


Shaping the Future Electronic Mobility Experience needs a

combination of modern semiconductors (e.g. FD-SOI)

and modern vehicle architectures

and an auto - semi cross value chain cooperation
