People increasingly seek devices that make their lives easier. To achieve such devices with more flexibility and more functionality, they must be systematically equipped with chips.



Chips enable devices to sense things, know how to react in situations, calculate, remember, do multiple things at once and much more. In short, chips make devices smarter.

Smart mobility


Smart cities


Smart industries


Smart energy


Smart health
