Vitesco Technologies and Infineon Technologies have announced that they will be intensifying their long-standing partnership to further improve the efficiency and system costs of future electrified vehicles. Vitesco Technologies will use Infineon's AURIX TC4xmicrocontroller family in its next generation of master and zone controllers for electric-electronic vehicle architectures (E/E architectures) as well as for its new electrification system solutions.
The multi-year agreement, which will come into effect in 2027, has a planned sales volume of more than one billion euros. The companies intend to work together to develop and produce efficient and reliable microcontrollers that meet the stringent requirements of theautomotive industry, including functional safety and cybersecurity.
The intensified partnership will help Vitesco Technologies to secure a long-term supply of important components for the transformation of the automotive industry to electric mobility. At the same time, Vitesco Technologies will benefit from Infineon's broad high-performance product portfolio, system expertise, and investments in manufacturingcapacities.Microcontrollers are used for controlling and monitoring a wide variety of systems in the automobile industry, including electric powertrain, E/E architecture, ADAS, radar and chassis. The AURIX TC4x microcontrollers from Infineon combine power and performanceenhancements with the latest trends in the fields of virtualization, AI-based modelling, functional safety, cybersecurity and network functions. This makes them ideal for use in the next generation of software defined vehicles.
