DENSO, ROHM Reach Basic Agreement to Establish a Strategic Partnership in the Semiconductor
May 12, 2025 | DENSOEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
DENSO CORPORATION and ROHM Co., Ltd. are pleased to announce that the two companies have reached a basic agreement to establish a strategic partnership in the semiconductor field. This agreement follows discussions and considerations that began in September 2024.
Recently, the importance of semiconductors that support the electrification and intelligence of vehicles has been increasing significantly. This is driven by the development and spread of electric vehicles aimed at achieving carbon neutrality, as well as the realization of automated driving, which is expected to contribute to zero fatalities in traffic accidents.
DENSO and ROHM have a long-standing collaboration in the trade and development of automotive semiconductors. Going forward, both companies will integrate DENSO's advanced system construction capabilities in the automotive sector with ROHM's cutting-edge semiconductor technology, cultivated in the consumer market. This partnership will focus on enhancing the lineup of high-quality devices, particularly analog ICs, that support vehicle electrification and intelligence, and deepening collaboration in development. Additionally, in highly compatible fields within their semiconductor businesses, both companies will discuss broad collaboration. By globally supplying products created through this co-creation, both companies aim to contribute to technological innovation in the automotive field and realize a sustainable mobility society.
To further solidify this partnership, DENSO and ROHM will continue to consider strengthening their capital relationship.
DENSO CORPORATION President & CEO, Shinnosuke Hayashi
DENSO positions semiconductors as key devices to realize next-generation vehicle systems and has been deepening its cooperative relationships with semiconductor manufacturers that possess rich experience and knowledge. ROHM has a wide range of semiconductor lineups that are crucial for automotive electronics products, essential for vehicle intelligence and electrification. We are very pleased that the partnership with ROHM is progressing smoothly. By further deepening the collaboration between both companies and integrating DENSO's accumulated automotive technology and expertise, we believe we can contribute to the development of the mobility society through stable supply and enhanced product value.
ROHM Co., Ltd. President (Representative Director), Katsumi Azuma
We are very pleased to deepen our collaborative relationship with DENSO, a leader in technological innovation for the mobility society. This partnership not only strengthens our relationship as suppliers but also envisions broad collaboration in the semiconductor business of both companies. Initially, we will focus on the development of analog ICs related to next-generation systems such as electrification, automated driving, and connected vehicles. Furthermore, without narrowing the scope, we will integrate our respective technologies, knowledge, and assets across a wide range of fields to contribute to technological innovation and stable supply in the automotive industry.
