Abstract :
Power electronic semiconductors from the viewpoint of an automotive OEM. Improving efficiency, especially in the “hidden” utilization of power electronic semiconductors, defines the next level of automotive electrification. AUDI breaks new ground in the semiconductor industry by strongly influencing the future of power electronics. Next to new products and functions, new forms of collaboration, networks and partnerships are needed.
