The post-COVID semiconductor crisis had a particularly strong impact on companies that design and manufacture capital goods and finished products for critical sectors such as energy, transportation, automotive, machine tools, medical, and aerospace. The components needed for the electronic boards integrated into their products suffered severe supply problems.
In this context, the collaborative research project 'SoC4CRIS' is working to design semiconductors for applications in Basque industry, specifically targeting the aforementioned sectors. The main objectives are, firstly, to gain autonomy in the design and manufacture of semiconductors, thereby mitigating a potential new crisis.
