[케이에스피뉴스] [특집] Ministry of Industry announces measures to respond to short-term supply and demand and strengthen industrial capabilities

Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy ‘Vehicle semiconductor procurement‘ Outbound businessmen, Priority Vaccination·With the announcement of short-term supply and demand response and industrial capability enhancement plan as well as the quarantine exemption, the coronavirus is provided with an exemption from self-isolation for businessmen at the time of entry and exit for the procurement of semiconductors for vehicles through multiple support without disruption in procurement.19 A plan for vaccination is promoted.. The government 10At the Seoul government office6Tea Innovation Growth Big3 Holding a promotion meeting and ‘Responding to short-term supply and demand for automotive semiconductors and strategies to strengthen industrial capabilities‘Announced. Last 4Inaugurated ‘Future car·Semiconductor Solidarity Cooperation Council‘It is a more concrete plan of the plan from.

Automotive semiconductors are experiencing shortages due to faster-than-expected recovery of automobile demand and concerns over excessive demand and supply of semiconductors.. Especially, Vehicle MCU(Electronic system control chip)Is in a difficult situation, Production disruptions of major global automakers are becoming visible.. Industry is the least 3It is expected that the supply and demand disruption will continue until the quarter.. Accordingly, the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy will promote multilateral support measures for seamless procurement of automotive semiconductors.. In the short term, we will support overseas emergency procurement and urgently discover semiconductors for vehicles that can be supplied in the short term.. In the mid to long term, it plans to secure core semiconductor production capabilities for future cars.. In addition to this, solidarity·Point out that it also establishes a foundation for cooperation.

<Overseas emergency procurement support>

first, In order to improve the supply and demand of semiconductors for vehicles,·Major countries using governmental cooperation channels, Overseas semiconductor company, It is in close consultation with the association, etc.. Especially, We are also in contact with Taiwan, which is consigned to producing semiconductors for a number of vehicles, and continuously monitor the supply and demand situation to strengthen working-level consultations if necessary. In addition, to prevent disruption in automobile production, 2month 17Since Japan, we have been supporting rapid customs clearance for automotive semiconductor components..

Coronavirus if an item that is concerned about disruption of production by a domestic company occurs due to an import disruption19Institutionalize the application of emergency support for customs administration equivalent to. Also, of mine·Foreigners, etc. 14Introduce a quarantine exemption system to prevent cases where the purpose of entry cannot be achieved due to Japanese quarantine.. Export related to the procurement of semiconductors for vehicles·Quick screening of quarantine exemption upon entry and purchase of semiconductors for vehicles·Corona for businessmen leaving for essential purposes such as procurement19 Plan to promote vaccination.

<Discovery of automotive semiconductors that can provide short-term alternative supply>

priority, Vehicle semiconductor parts developed by domestic companies·Support early commercialization of automotive semiconductors through emergency support for module performance evaluation. In the first half of the year, after a company demand survey, the vehicle semiconductor field will be newly established as a separate track for the mass production performance evaluation support project for the general manager.. Along with this, we will announce early this year’s mass production performance evaluation project in the automotive semiconductor field.. Automotive and semiconductor companies(Foundry, Fabless, etc.)Discover the cooperation model of small managers in connection with this and provide package support.. Demand for stabilization of supply chain for small managers in the future–Cooperation between suppliers ‘Cooperation model‘Approved as, Package supported ‘General Manager Competitiveness Enhancement Committee‘Plan to use.

<Reinforcement of domestic vehicle semiconductor industry capability>

Next-generation intelligent semiconductor technology development business, Related to autonomous driving technology development innovation business, etc. R&DThrough vehicle semiconductor·Support parts self-sufficiency. For vehicles from this year AP And edge computing chips, level4 Autonomous vehicle parts, It is expanding its support area to an ultra-safe driving platform, etc..Along with this, existing semiconductors applicable to automobiles(Communication·Image sensor, etc.)To support performance improvement by discovering, Existing business R&D Continue to promote support.

Existing non-vehicle semiconductors for rapid commercialization of automotive semiconductors(Home appliance·Industrial·Mobile, etc.)Conversion to vehicle use·Support renovation.Also, based on industry demand, electric vehicle power control semiconductor module, V2X And communication semiconductors for autonomous driving, AI semiconductor, Planning new tasks for integrated control semiconductor modules for each area·Support.Existing automotive semiconductors R&D Support for tasks will continue to expand and open data for learning necessary for the development of self-driving semiconductors..

Electric vehicles to reinforce the technological capabilities of next-generation power semiconductors based on new materials·Reinforcing the technology capabilities of next-generation power semiconductors that are expected to increase in demand in response to the increased power consumption of future vehicles such as autonomous vehicles.. Especially, Si(silicon) Contrast power efficiency and excellent durability SiC(Silicon carbide), GaN(Gallium nitride) Dominating the early market of semiconductors based on new materials such as R&DPromote. Along with this, through government budget support, 2022We will promote the establishment of infrastructure from 2008.

Fabless, Functional safety evaluation to alleviate the foundry’s barrier to entry into automotive semiconductors and support the application of finished vehicles·Build a reliability certification infrastructure. Establish facilities and test evaluation equipment for functional safety test evaluation and reliability certification of vehicle semiconductors., Established infrastructure is jointly utilized by fabless·Operated as an open lab for research. Automotive semiconductor design support, Technical advice and commercialization such as test analysis are also supported.. After that, through government budget support 2022Promotion of infrastructure construction from year to year, ‘Industrial innovation infrastructure construction project‘Take advantage of the gun 100Supporting KRW 100 million in national expenditure.

<Securing core semiconductor production capabilities for future cars>

domestic·Strengthen support for prototyping costs so that fablesses can use semiconductor foundries for other vehicles without burden.. Vehicle semiconductor ‘R&D→Prototyping→Functional safety and reliability evaluation‘Establish a full-cycle support system for all stages of mass production that leads to. In the future, when operating the system semiconductor design support center’s prototype production program, we will provide priority support for insufficient semiconductor components such as automotive semiconductors.. Cars to increase in the future·Strengthen domestic foundry investment support to respond to the demand for next-generation semiconductors such as home appliances in a timely manner..

<age·Building a foundation for cooperation>

car–For close cooperation between semiconductor companies ‘Future car–Semiconductor solidarity·Cooperation Council‘Configure·Operating and council-based automobiles–Semiconductor matchmaking(Match-Making) Strengthen support.Also, to promote the self-sufficiency of automotive semiconductors,·The government plans to establish a joint mid-to-long-term technology roadmap..
