The automotive grade devices are designed and developed per a quality management system (QMS) that is registered to ISO 9001:2015. The scope of the ISO 9001:2015 registration includes design, development, and provision of semiconductor components, intellectual properties, and software tools. All the foundry, assembly, and test sites that manufacture the automotive devices are operating a QMS that is registered to IATF 16949 in addition to ISO 9001:2015.
