SiEngine is an automotive chip company jointly founded by Geely-backed ECARX and ARM China. The SE1000 is the company’s first self-developed 7-nanometer auto-grade SoC, which realized mass production and delivery in March this year.
The SE1000 adopts a multi-core heterogeneous architecture, with 8 CPU cores realizing 90K DMIPS of computing power, a 14 core GPU with 900GFLOPS computing power, and 8 TOPS NPU computing power.
With the support of two SE1000 SoCs, the Lynk & Co 08 is able to smoothly run its industry-first 92-inch HUD with 2K definition. Moreover, the two chips’ total of 16TOPS computing power helps with the vehicle’s L0-L2 assistant driving functions, including APA, RPA, etc. In addition, the SE1000 also allows the vehicle’s eye-tracking function, which adjusts the AR-HUD to an optimal angle based on the driver’s eye level.
