Himax Technologies, Inc., a leading supplier and fabless manufacturer of display drivers and other semiconductor products, announced that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for Strategic Cooperation with Nexchip Semiconductor Corporation, a China-based semiconductor foundry, for the supply of ICs for the
automotive display market, in response to the industry's increasing demand for automotive displays. Mr. Chen Ping-Po, Himax's Executive Vice President of
Automotive Display and Touch Operation Unit, signed the MOU on the company's behalf at Nexchip's new plant inauguration event in Hefei, China.
By entering the automotive area, the partnership of Himax and Nexchip takes a significant stride forward in addition to the existing successful collaboration in consumer electronic products over the past several years. The collaboration illustrates Himax’s foundry supply diversification strategy to expand IC supply for the thriving automotive market and further strengthens the Company’s position in it, as per Himax.
The agreement also emphasizes both parties' entire attention in the next years on the automobile business, notably in China.

car display IC market, and it delivers the industry's widest options, spanning from basic DDIC to
