New cars typically contain more than one hundred MCUs throughout the automotive platform. Engine control, body and chassis control, EV/HEV battery management, instrument clusters, on-board diagnostics and other functional safety applications continue to expand the requirements for automotive MCUs. In addition, the growth of non-optical and image sensors that monitor engine performance, stabilization, and climate control are driving the addition of sensor fusion capabilities to the MCUs.
Synopsys offers the industry’s broadest portfolio of interface IP, data converters IP, high-performance datapath elements, embedded memories and logic libraries, security IP, and 32-bit ARC® processors and subsystems for mainstream automotive MCUs.
