Case Study: An Automotive Sensor Chip for Electric Vehicles RTL2GDSII Design Engagement Overview This chip design, for a leading supplier of sensor technology, is a big step forward in bespoke solutions for electric car manufacturers. The technology can be utilised to relay information from several key areas within a vehicle, for example as tyre pressure sensors, thermal management and temperature sensors and battery gas sensors. This specific design will sit within each car battery, providing an efficient safety mechanism to monitor and report on the status of each battery cell. Replacing existing technology with this new solution will also enable manufacturers to strip out more weight within the car. This second-generation design moved to a 90nm technology from 180nm, so that
