How many semiconductor chips are used per vehicle? The importance of the semiconductor industry
The significance of the semiconductor industry and its effect on the automotive market can perhaps be better comprehended by examining how many semiconductor chips are required for each vehicle.
In earlier times, conventional vehicles containing limited sensors and utilized merely a few hundred chips.
However, with advancements in technology, modern-day automobiles have multiple high-tech sensors installed across all domains that enable advanced driver assistance systems to function and connect with other devices.
As a result, contemporary cars are becoming more software-oriented than ever before.
Currently, a typical automobile includes roughly 1400 different types of chips including microprocessors, logic ICs and AI chips among others.
However, electric vehicles and high-tech automobiles require approximately 3500 such devices.
The cost value per vehicle for these semiconductors may range from $350 up to $1000 plus depending on the type used since there are around 150 kinds available with memory chips being one example along with power semiconductors or optical ones.
