Integrated circuits (ICs) are the core engine of industrial automation, determining the accuracy, response speed, and reliability of equipment. In harsh industrial environments, chips need to have high temperature resistance, vibration resistance, and a lifespan of several decades.

Mainly reflected in four levels:

·Motion control and drive: Microcontrollers, DSPs (digital signal processors), combined with IGBTs and IPMs (intelligent power modules), form the "brain" and "muscle" of industrial robots and CNC machine tools, responsible for precise control of motor speed, position, and torque.

·Industrial Communication: A processor with FPGA and integrated TSN (Time Sensitive Network) interface, used to solve the problem of high delay in traditional buses, complete synchronous data exchange between controllers and hundreds of devices in milliseconds, and support the operation of automated production lines.

·Sensing and Measurement: High precision analog front-end and 24 bit or more ADC (Analog to Digital Converter) can convert physical quantities such as pressure and displacement into digital signals. For example, in measuring equipment or industrial temperature measurement, they can detect small changes in resistance and achieve high-precision measurements of tens of thousands.

·Safety and Redundancy: Functional safety chips used in critical fields such as nuclear power and high-speed rail, with built-in dual core locking and self checking mechanisms. When system abnormalities are detected, the device can be guided to a safe state (such as emergency stop) within microseconds to prevent accidents.
