TAIPEI – Analog Devices and Foxconn have partnered to work toward the development of the next-generation digital car cockpit and a high-performance battery management system (BMS).

The company's signed a Memorandum of Understanding at a signing event officiated by Vincent Roche, CEO and chair of ADI, and Young Liu, CEO and chair of Foxconn.

Together, the two companies are positioned to forge a transformative path by advancing software-defined and more sustainable, feature-rich vehicles, ultimately pursuing a new era of automotive excellence, the companies said in a release.

"The global automotive industry continues to digitalize and differentiate at the semiconductor level to deliver a more personalized, immersive, and sustainable driving experience," said Roche. "ADI is delighted to work together with Foxconn to create a smarter mobility ecosystem and accelerate the breakthrough innovations the industry needs. With our joint expertise, we aim to transform the automotive industry towards a future of mobility that is better for humanity and the planet."

"Foxconn actively collaborates with international partners to link ecosystems and unlock greater value in electric car technology and smart transportation. We are looking forward to working with ADI to leverage its high-performance automotive electronics technology, enabling our clients to overcome obstacles and seize emerging possibilities," said Liu.

ADI’s flexible hardware and robust software solutions, combined with Foxconn’s expertise in electronic design, system-level integration capabilities, and manufacturing prowess, have the potential to deliver scalable vehicle platforms to disrupt the future of automotive manufacturing and create a more enjoyable and user-friendly cockpit experience, the companies said.

ADI’s portfolio for automotive electrification, ADI Recharge, includes system-level solutions for BMS, electric powertrain, and power management to enable smarter, more efficient and longer-range EVs. Automotive cabin applications such as advanced infotainment, smart cockpits, and autonomous driving would leverage ADI A2B, Gigabit Multimedia Serial Link (GMSL) video links, and SHARC DSP. ADI’s innovations in edge processing will also serve in enabling sophisticated information ecosystems in the automobile to realize the potential of software-defined vehicles.
