We’re excited to announce that our SC1900AR3, the first PCIe® (PCI Express) switch purpose-built for automotive, has been shortlisted for the ELEKTRA Awards in the category “Automotive / Hi-Rel Semiconductor Product of the Year”.
Honouring excellence in electronics, the ELEKTRA Awards highlight the innovations shaping the industry - and we’re proud to see our technology recognized.
As vehicles evolve into software-defined platforms with autonomous driving capabilities (Level 3+), they rely on multiple high-performance SoCs to handle AI inferencing, sensor fusion, and real-time decision-making. These SoCs must exchange large volumes of data with ultra-low latency and high bandwidth PCIe® is the ideal interconnect for this task, offering a standardized, high-speed, point-to-point communication protocol.
Socionext’s SC1900AR3 is the first PCIe® switch purpose-built for automotive applications. It enables secure, high-speed communication between SoCs, supports virtualization through SR-IOV, and ensures functional safety with ASIL-B compliance - making it a key enabler for next-generation ADAS and centralized compute architectures.
