With the development of the industry moving into the fast lane, the carrying object of the automatic driving function has become an irreversible trend from high-end cars to low-end models.

 

 

 

When the functions continue to be completed and the scale is expanding, the chip known as the "brain of automatic driving" will inevitably receive more attention.

 

 

 

At present, automatic driving SoC chip players mainly include overseas chip makers, domestic chip makers and self-study car companies. Overseas chip makers mainly include Nvidia, Mobileye and Qualcomm, domestic chip makers mainly include Huawei, Horizon and Black Sesame, while self-developed chip car companies are mainly Tesla and Zero Run, and the camp of self-developed car companies may continue to expand.

 

 

 

Since then, Chaodian Think Tank has compiled the TOP7 global autopilot SOC chip manufacturers.

 

 

 

It has been said that 2022-2023 will be the year of mass production of global autonomous driving SOC chips, and the competition around SOC chips will be exceptionally lively. Because in 2022, NVIDIA's autonomous driving chip Orin, Qualcomm Snapdragon Ride successfully mass-produced, and China's startups' macrocomputing chips also successfully mass-produced.

 

 

 

The size of the autonomous driving SoC market is growing strongly, becoming one of the hottest automotive chip tracks. However, the design and manufacture of self-driving SoC chips has a high technical threshold, especially for self-driving SoC chips with arithmetic power greater than 50 TOPS, and it is more difficult for general enterprises to enter this track.

 

 

 

In the field of automatic driving SoC chips, although domestic manufacturers Horizon, Black Sesame Intelligence, Huawei and NVIDIA market share gap is still very large. But from the products released by domestic manufacturers, the arithmetic power of the chip is rapidly improving, and the research and development of the large arithmetic power of automatic driving SoC chips required for L3 and above high-level is in full swing.
