A path to next generation E/E architecture

The automotive industry is undergoing a significant transformation accomplished with the need for high performance
computing solutions. This demand is fueled by the necessity for powerful and reliable performance, as well as the integration of sophisticated semiconductor technologies to meet the dynamic requirements of modern vehicles.

Automotive E/E (Electrical/Electronic) architectures have evolved through various stages, from distributed to domain based, and now to zonal architectures. Each architectural generation accompanied by greater performance demands and therefore necessitating more complex semiconductor components.

As the complexity of automotive semiconductors continues to rise, the limitations of traditional system
on chip (SoC) designs are becoming apparent, both in terms of scalability, power consumption, lifetime requirements and cost
effectiveness. To address these challenges, the automotive industry is exploring alternative solutions, including the potential adoption of chiplets within the automotive sector.
