TrueAuto™ is SMSC's automotive quality process. It has proven its ability to deliver leading-edge quality and services for IC device products to fulfill the needs of the most demanding automotive customers. TrueAuto is a proven total automotive-grade quality approach. TrueAuto IC device robustness begins with SMSC’s design for reliability techniques within the silicon IC itself: automotive-grade robustness and testability are designed into the IC. Once available in silicon, the IC is fully-characterized and qualified over a multitude of operating parameters to prove quality under the harshest conditions. In this, SMSC’s TrueAuto approach significantly exceeds the usual automotive reliability standards and customer- specific requirements and goes far beyond the stress tests prescribed by the AEC-Q100 specifications. During the fabrication of TrueAuto products, extensive technologies and processes, such as enhanced monitors are used in order to continuously drive improvements in accordance with SMSC’s zero Defects per Million (DPM) goals.
