Can this car meet the minimum international requirements of emission, pollution, safety, etc.?
Chua: It is too early to comment on the performance of this car. All cars are supposed to meet such minimum requirements. It is a great achievement of Indian designers to this car. What is the key automotive design activity in the foreseeable future? The key driver for the next three years will be emission. How does Infineon position itself in the automotive segment? We position ourselves as a one-stop automotive semiconductor supplier. We can provide designers with over 95 percent of their semiconductor needs. What kind of automotive design work is Infineon doing in Asia? In Singapore, where we have some 80 engineers, we design and develop microcontrollers for automotive applications. We are currently working on 32-bit microcontrollers. Two years ago we started R&D on sensors. Demands on sensors are rapidly increasing. While they are getting smaller, cheaper, and more reliable, they have to offer more functionalities. Infineon has pioneered the latest developments in sensors, and prov
