Renesas Develops SoC Technologies for Automotive Multi-Domain ECUs Essential for the SDV Era
  Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, has developed three System-on-Chip (SoC) technologies for automotive multi-domain electronic control units (ECUs). They feature advanced AI processing capabilities and chiplet functions, serving as the core technology platform for next-generation automotive electrical/electronic (E/E) architectures. Renesas presented the results at the International Solid-State Circuits Conference 2026 (ISSCC 2026), held February 15–19 in San Francisco, USA.  In the age of software-defined vehicles (SDVs), automotive SoCs require advanced performance to run multiple applications simultaneously and must offer scalability through chiplets. They must also meet the functional safety requirements of automotive SoCs. As multi-domain SoCs powering central computing are growing larger and more complex, maintaining automotive-grade quality is becoming more difficult. With increased performance in advanced SoCs, power consumption also rises, making improvements in power efficiency and safety vital. To meet these needs, Renesas has developed the following new technologies.  1. Chiplet architecture that supports functional safety  To meet the functional safety requirements of automotive SoCs, Renesas has developed a new, proprietary architecture that supports ASIL D even in a chiplet configuration. By combining the standard die-to-die UCIe interface with a proprietary RegionID mechanism, the architecture prevents interference with hardware resources, even when numerous applications run simultaneously, thereby achieving Freedom from Interference (FFI).  Conventional UCIe interfaces lack functionality to transmit RegionIDs between dies. Renesas developed a method for mapping RegionIDs into physical address space, encoding them into the UCIe region, and transmitting them. This enables safe access control through the memory management unit (MMU) and real-time cores, and meets functional safety requirements across chiplets. Additionally, by maintaining bandwidth from processors to the memory bus, the UCIe interface was confirmed through testing to achieve a high transmission speed of 51.2 GB/s, approaching the upper limit of intra-SoC transfer speeds. This technology provides both scalability and safety for high-performance automotive SoCs.  2. Advanced AI processing capabilities and automotive-grade quality  Automotive-grade quality is vital for SDV systems. Renesas has created a 3 nm SoC design that improves the performance of neural processing units (NPUs) for AI processing, while maintaining automotive-grade quality. In recent years, NPUs have been growing larger, with their area expanding 1.5-fold compared to previous generations. This has led to increased clock latency between shared clock sources and individual circuits. To address this problem, Renesas has redesigned the clock architecture by splitting up clock pulse generators (CPGs), which in past designs were module-level units, and placing mini-CPGs (mCPGs) at the sub-module level. This greatly reduces clock latency and meets timing requirements.  However, multi-layer mCPGs complicate test clock synchronization, which is critical for achieving zero defects in automotive applications. Renesas has integrated test circuits into the hierarchical CPG architecture and unified the signal path for user clocks and test clocks. The new design also synchronizes upper- and lower-level mCPGs under a single clock source in test mode. This makes unified phase adjustment possible. As a result, Renesas has been able to achieve quality aligned with zero-defect expectations, even for large-scale SoCs, providing the high reliability required for next-generation SDV automotive SoCs.  3. Advanced power control and monitoring for improved power efficiency and safety  To achieve the high level of performance required for automotive SoCs with improved power efficiency and safety, Renesas has developed advanced power gating technology that uses over 90 power domains. It enables precise power control, from several milliwatts to several tens of watts, depending on operating conditions. Furthermore, Renesas has split power switches (PSWs) into ring PSWs and row PSWs to reduce IR drops (voltage drops) associated with increasing current density from smaller process geometries. When power is turned on, the ring PSW suppresses rush currents. Then the row PSW equalizes impedance within the domain. Together, these reduce IR drops by roughly 13% compared with conventional designs.  To meet ASIL D functional safety standards, the dual core lock step (DCLS) configuration controls the master and checker cores with independent power switches and controllers. With this design, even if one side fails, the failure can be detected through lockstep operation. Furthermore, loopback monitoring is performed for each PSW's gate signal, so OFF states are detected when a failure occurs. A digital voltage meter (DVMON), which is highly resistant to temperature drift, is used for voltage monitoring. This improves aging tolerance by 1.4 mV. These technologies enable high-performance automotive SoCs that offer both power efficiency and safety.  These new technologies are being used in Renesas' R-Car X5H SoC for automotive multi-domain ECUs. With R-Car X5H, users can accelerate the evolution of SDVs while ensuring safety and enabling autonomous driving, digital cockpit and more.

ROHM’s New LDO Regulators with 500mA Output Current Achieving Stable Operation Even with Ultra-small Capacitors to Expand Design Flexibility for High-current Applications
  ROHM has developed the “BD9xxN5 Series” of LDO regulator ICs with 500mA output current, featuring its proprietary ultra-stable control technology “Nano Cap™”. This series comprises 18 products designed for 12V/24V primary power supply applications used in automotive equipment, industrial equipment, and communication infrastructure.  In recent years, electronic devices have demanded higher density in smaller form factors at the same time. To meet this demand and achieve space savings and design flexibility, power supply ICs must be capable of stable operation even with small-capacity capacitors. However, achieving such performance with output capacitors of 1µF or less has been technically difficult.  To address this challenge, ROHM developed the “BD9xxN1 Series” LDO regulator (150mA output current) in 2022, incorporating its proprietary ultra-stable control technology, “Nano Cap™”. This innovation enables stable operation with output capacitors as small as 100nF, earning widespread adoption across numerous applications.  The newly developed BD9xxN5 Series builds on the success of the BD9xxN1 Series by increasing the output current to 500mA – more than three times higher than before – significantly broadening its suitability for applications requiring higher power. In addition, very low output voltage ripple of approximately 250mV (with load current variation of 1mA to 500mA within 1µs) is achieved with a small output capacitance of just 470nF (typical). Beyond standard small MLCCs (multi-layer ceramic capacitors) in the range of several µF and large-capacity electrolytic capacitors, it also supports ultra-small MLCCs, such as the 0603M size (0.6mm × 0.3mm), with capacities below 1µF – where stability was previously difficult to achieve. This contributes to space saving as well as greater flexibility in component selection.  Furthermore, high-precision SPICE models, “ROHM Real Model” are provided for accurate simulation and can be downloaded from the ROHM official website.  SPICE Models: BD900N5xxx-C BD933N5xxxx-C BD950N5xxxx-C  ROHM will continue to contribute to the high performance, miniaturization, and high reliability of electronic devices by further expanding its Nano Cap™ technology-equipped LDO series.

TAIYO丨Multilayer Metal Power Inductor Rated at 165°C for Automobiles 1608 Size Added to the Lineup
  TAIYO YUDEN CO., LTD. has commercialized 14 items, including the multilayer metal power inductor MCOIL™ "LACNF1608KKT1R0MAB" (1.6 x 0.8 x 1.0 mm, maximum height shown), which complies with the "AEC-Q200" certification reliability test standard for passive automotive components.  The new product is approximately 49% smaller than our previous product, the "LACNF2012KKT1R0MAB" (2.0 x 1.25 x 1.0 mm), and can contribute to the miniaturization and higher performance of power supply circuits installed in automobiles.  These products are used as choke coils in DC-DC converters used in automotive engine control systems such as ECUs, safety systems such as ABS, body-related systems such as ADAS, and information systems such as instrument clusters.  Mass production of this products began at our subsidiary, WAKAYAMA TAIYO YUDEN CO., LTD. (Inami-cho, Hidaka-gun, Wakayama Prefecture), in December 2025. Samples are available for 50 yen per unit.  Background  The advancements that we have seen in recent years in electronic controls in production vehicles, as typified by ADAS units, has led to a greater number of power supply circuits on vehicles, which in turn has led to growth in the demand for power inductors that are used in these circuits. Furthermore, performance also continues to improve through functional integration, such as in integrated cockpits that combine instrument clusters and infotainment devices. While the throughput of IC chips continues to grow as these devices become increasingly multifunctional and high-performance, there is also a growing need to make on-board electronic components smaller in order to arrange devices in highly dense configurations and integrate them into single modules. Furthermore, since ECUs are increasingly being installed in engine compartments--a high temperature environment--on-board electronic components must be able to withstand high temperatures.  In response, TAIYO YUDEN has added a new 1608 size to its MCOIL™ LACN series of multilayer metal power inductors, which boast the advantages of being smaller and thinner, and having an operating temperature range of -55°C to +165°C. Our proprietary metal materials are bonded to each other by an oxide film using heat treatment, ensuring insulation and providing high heat resistance and thermal conductivity. Thanks to these features, the product exhibits stable characteristics, is able to withstand high temperatures, and achieves high reliability, even in devices used in harsh temperature environments such as automotive applications.  TAIYO YUDEN focuses on the development of products that meet market needs, and will continue to expand its power inductor product lineup.  ■Application  Choke coils in DC-DC converters used in automotive engine control systems such as ECUs, safety systems such as ABS, body-related systems such as ADAS, and information systems such as instrument clusters  * Derating of rated current is necessary depending on the ambient temperature.

A Comprehensive Guide to Choosing Between LDO (Low Dropout Linear Regulators) and DC-DC (Switching Regulators)
  Selecting the appropriate voltage regulator is critical for the stability and efficiency of various circuit systems. Among the numerous types available, LDO (Low Dropout Linear Regulators) and DC-DC (Switching Regulators) are two common voltage stabilizers. This article will thoroughly explore the selection methods for LDO and DC-DC regulators, covering concepts, operating principles, characteristics, and application scenarios.  A Comprehensive Guide to Selecting LDO (Low Dropout Linear Regulators) and DC-DC (Switching Regulators)  1. LDO (Low Dropout Linear Regulator)  1.1 Concept  LDO stands for Low Dropout Regulator, typically used to regulate high input voltages to lower output voltages. It achieves stable output voltage by adjusting the conduction resistance of its internal transistor.  1.2 Working Principle  When the input voltage exceeds the output voltage, the internal transistor enters an amplified state. It dissipates excess power to regulate the output voltage, maintaining it at the set value.  1.3 Characteristics  Simple design, low noise, relatively low cost, suitable for applications requiring high precision. However, it has low efficiency and significant thermal distortion.  2. DC-DC (Switching Regulator)  2.1 Concept  DC-DC refers to a switching regulator (DC-to-DC Converter) that converts input voltage to the desired output voltage by switching the state of a switching element (e.g., MOSFET).  2.2 Working Principle  DC-DC operates by periodically turning the switching element on and off to control the output voltage magnitude, while a filter removes high-frequency noise from the output waveform.  2.3 Features  High efficiency, capable of delivering substantial output power, suitable for applications requiring large voltage drops or enhanced efficiency, but involves complex design and relatively higher cost.  3. How to Select?  3.1 Output Voltage Range  For lower output voltages, an LDO is more suitable; whereas for large voltage drops or higher output power requirements, a DC-DC converter is more appropriate.  3.2 Efficiency Requirements  When prioritizing power efficiency, especially under large voltage drops, DC-DC converters typically outperform LDOs.  3.3 System Complexity  LDOs may be preferable for simplified design and cost reduction; DC-DC converters are necessary when higher output power and efficiency are required.  3.4 Ripple and Noise  In applications sensitive to output ripple and noise, LDOs are generally more suitable than DC-DC converters because they produce lower ripple and noise.  4. Application Scenarios  4.1 LDO Application Scenarios  Applications requiring high output voltage accuracy, low output current, and strict ripple/noise specifications.  4.2 DC-DC Applications  Applications requiring large voltage drops, high output power, and high efficiency, such as mobile devices, power amplifiers, and communication equipment.  4.3 Comprehensive Considerations  In practical applications, the optimal regulator type must be selected by comprehensively evaluating system power consumption, output load conditions, stability requirements, and cost factors.  As common voltage regulators, LDOs and DC-DC converters play vital roles in electronic product design. Selecting the appropriate regulator type depends on specific application requirements, including output voltage range, efficiency demands, system complexity, and ripple noise. During the selection process, a comprehensive evaluation of all factors is necessary to ensure the circuit system operates stably, reliably, and efficiently.
