TOPIC & ABSTRACT
Disruptive Megatrends Transforming the Automotive Industry
Global megatrends are driving the transformation of automotive industry and the
changes in the coming 5 to 10 years is going to be more drastic and faster than the
past 50 years.
Thus Semiconductor content of cars will grow rapidly. With this, the Automotive
Industry will contribute to additional global demand for semiconductors in long term.
Transformation is a reality and unless we embrace the changes, we will be put out of
business. Although the megatrends are disrupting the industry, they also generate
new opportunities.
Let’s look into what triggered these trends and what are the challenges faced by the

TOPIC & ABSTRACT
Enabling Mobility through mmWave Technologies
mmWave technology is the driving force and backbone for enabling 5G, IoT, Autonomous
Vehicles, Smart Cities, Healthcare monitoring and various satellite communications applications.
With the projected strong growth in demand for these applications, there is a strong push for
mmWave technologies to be further researched, developed, and deployed for mass adoption.
However, various key challenges and issues still remain and need to be addressed before these
technologies can become mainstream. The challenges in current mmWave technologies span from
improving the range of the signals, increasing the Field of View, improving power efficiency &
thermal management of the integrated circuits, enabling proper handover of communications from
one device to another and having good connections for non-linear communication pathways.
Singapore is in a good position to be a centre for development and deployment of various
applications riding on mmWave technology. With strong government support, and a vibrant
SME/LLE/MNC ecosystem, Singapore is well-positioned to develop new solutions for enabling the
above applications.
IME is keen to play a central role in supporting the development and adoption of mmWave
technology. We innovate and integrate our proprietary integrated circuit designs together with our
partners’ designs, to enable ICs that can be smarter, consume less power, and at the same time,
have much smaller form factors. Together with our close partnerships with our sister Research
Institutes, we are gearing for a future of mmWave adoption in satellite communications, smart
cities, autonomous vehicles and healthcare monitoring.
The key focus areas of our research help support the new wave of applications utilizing mmWave.
These include 1) Integration of MMICs / RFICs to Antenna in Package 2) Improving efficiencies of
handovers and 4) Development of phase shifters for directional beam-forming. These are areas we
see as integral to solving the component level semiconductor issues facing mmWave technologies.SUMMIT SPEAKERS

TOPIC & ABSTRACT
Making Silicon New Again
The economic and technical challenges of pushing towards the ultimate physical
limits of Moore’s Law are burgeoning. Beyond traditional density scaling, increased
dimensionality, in terms of both transistor design and packaging schemes, is being
used to obtain further functional and performance improvements. Higher performance
advanced materials are also being sought to replace silicon as the active material. Yet
these methods of pushing for a technological edge are very costly, and require
new wafer fabs.
A different approach is to start with existing mature processes and infrastructure, and
as much of the existing silicon CMOS supply chain as possible. By combining the
right advances in epitaxy, wafer bonding, microfabrication, device design and
modeling, we can incorporate compound semiconductor circuit elements into
traditional silicon CMOS integrated circuits, thereby augmenting silicon and making
silicon new and exciting again.
This provides a pathway to incorporate efficient optical, wireless and RF elements
into integrated circuits with a scalable commercial model similar to the existing silicon
world. This will enable the creation of space-efficient silicon systems that have
illumination and display functions, and next generation wireless communication
capabilities, which are well-suited for mobile and automotive applications. As was the

TOPIC & ABSTRACT
Batteries and Power Electronics, Enabling Future Mobility
Urban mobility is an ever evolving landscape. With many countries pledging to stop
selling fossil fuel vehicles within 20-30 years, key technologies for electric transport
will continually grow in importance. In this talk, I will outline two key technologies
currently in development at IMRE: Power Electronics and Batteries. In Power
Electronics, IMRE has a newly formed program to help kickstart the Silicon Carbide
Industry in Singapore. The program will develop 200mm SiC Epi wafers required for
more efficient and cost effective power electronics for automotive and beyond. In
batteries, IMRE’s strength is in developing materials to improve battery performance.
We are looking to help grow the local battery industry to mimic what the
semiconductor industry is today.PANELLISTS
TOPIC & ABSTRACT
Technologies that will shape the future of Mobility in
Singapore and the Region
(AI) and 5G. We are starting to see more dependencies between these technologies, and
together, they are enabling greater possibilities for human to realize our dreams of the future.
Dreams that we could only imagine in the past, are now coming into reality, and it is just a matter
of years before this reality will shape our daily life.
One such dream is the advancement in the mobility sector. We are seeing the introduction of
electric cars on roads around the world, to demonstrations of fully autonomous vehicles. It won’t
be long before fully autonomous vehicles become a norm in our life. Where does the dream
begin, and when will it cross the line into reality.
For this panel discussion we have a line-up of distinguished speakers coming together from
different sectors. Listen to how they envision the future of mobility in Singapore and the region,
driven by the different technologies available today and in the near future.
