Vehicles are evolving to include more advanced features enhancing safety, comfort and convenience. More features require more complex electronics, which emphasize the importance of power efficiency. Power efficiency enables longer driving ranges and lowers operational costs, resulting in semiconductor manufacturers lowering the typical supply voltage of an electrical component such as a microcontroller (MCU) from 5V to 3.3V.

The biggest disruption in the automotive industry in the past decade is the move toward software-defined vehicles. Traditional vehicle designs had hardware-based subsystems dedicated to specific functions such as the powertrain or infotainment.
