According to IC Insights' forecast, smart car systems will increase demand for 32-bit MCUs in 2013. According to Michael Anfang, Director of Microcontrollers and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems in the Automotive Products Division of STMicroelectronics, the safety requirements of various countries are becoming higher and higher, including the safety of software and hardware. In consideration, so more and more automotive microcontrollers have turned to 32-bit. In order to meet the needs of the Chinese market, STMicroelectronics has launched the SPC5x series of 32-bit microcontrollers for automotive applications.

The SPC5x series is based on the 32-bit PowerArchitecture architecture core, which is different from the 32-bit microprocessors using ARM and MIPS architecture in that it has strong scalability, performance and architecture are both scalable; good mutual compatibility, kernel binary code It is compatible with each other, pin to pin is also compatible with each other; high safety, making the design pass SIL3 / ASILD certification. Mainly used in traditional automotive electronics, such as powertrains, chassis, safety and body modules. This series of products has a wide range of coverage, from low to high full coverage, and the lowest price is even cheaper than 16-bit microprocessors. Michael Anfang explained that STMicroelectronics also has a lot of ARM and MIPS architecture products, but it is mainly used in infotainment and driver assistance systems. The SPC5x market is launched to lock in the traditional automotive electronics market.
Michael Anfang said that from 2011 to 2019, China's 32-bit microcontroller sales are expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of about 16%, and 32-bit automotive microcontroller sales will grow at a compound annual growth rate of about 25%. It can be seen that cars are 32-bit microcontrollers The big application of the device.
In China, automotive microcontrollers are in a stage of rapid growth, especially the demand for powertrains, safety systems and body microcontrollers is very strong. SPC5x is very suitable for the Chinese market. It now includes more than 60 products, and more products will be launched in the future. According to Michael Anfang, SPC5x not only provides dual supply guarantee, but also provides the best partner ecosystem and development tools to provide customers with a full range of hardware and software support. The overall solution can reduce customer R & D cost.
SPC5x came to China with many of its "dowry", whether it can form a good marriage with Chinese local and foreign car manufacturers, STMicroelectronics is still very confident, because it is revealed that the order of SPC5x has exceeded 2.2 billion US dollars.
