        According to media reports, Infineon announced on its official website on Tuesday that they and UMC have reached a long-term strategic cooperation agreement to expand cooperation in the automotive microcontroller business.
        Judging from the news announced by Infineon on the official website, the cooperation between the two companies is still in the production of Infineon microcontrollers. After reaching a long-term strategic cooperation agreement with UMC, their production capacity will be doubled to better meet the growing market demand.

        According to the new long-term strategic cooperation agreement, UMC will manufacture high-performance microcontroller products for Infineon at their fab in Singapore using a 40nm process technology. High-performance microcontrollers from Infineon utilizing their proprietary eNVM (Embedded Non-Volatile Memory) technology.
        Microcontrollers are key components that control many functions in cars, and as cars become more environmentally friendly, safer and smarter, the demand for microcontrollers is also increasing significantly. This year, Infineon has increased the sales rate of automotive microcontrollers to nearly 1 million units per day.
Regarding the new long-term strategic cooperation agreement, Infineon Chief Operating Officer Rutger Wijburg said that through the new strategic cooperation agreement, they have secured additional long-term production capacity to serve customers in the fast-growing automotive market.
        UMC executives also said that they are very pleased that Infineon has chosen their factory in Singapore to produce automotive microcontrollers. long-term partnerships in the field.
