Company profile
researched Aug 2026Silicon Mobility develops digital control solutions for electrified powertrains, combining automotive semiconductors with software applications. Its portfolio centers on the Adaptive Control Unit (ACU), an automotive semiconductor designed to process critical information with predictability and accuracy and to be customizable, and the Adaptive Control App (AC App), software modules built for the ACU. Together these form the Adaptive Control Solution (ACS), which the company positions as applicable to electric and hybrid vehicles and as executing advanced control algorithms at high speed.
The stated aim of the products is to help carmakers improve EV and hybrid electric vehicle energy efficiency, increase driving range, accelerate charging time and reduce cost, while also addressing automotive safety requirements. Target applications include traction inverters for electric and hybrid vehicles, high-power DC/DC converters and on-board chargers, each supported by off-the-shelf control applications or customer-developed applications built with the ACS software library. The company operates as part of Intel Automotive, and its ACU U310 product is branded as an Intel Adaptive Control Unit.
Business model
The company supplies semiconductor hardware together with accompanying control software applications and software libraries to vehicle manufacturers, offering either ready-to-use off-the-shelf control applications or tools for customers to develop their own powertrain control applications.
Traction
Company materials cite application-level performance figures of up to 20% energy gain for traction inverter control, up to 15% for DC/DC converter control combined with a multi-voltage inverter, and up to 10% energy gain with up to 10% shorter battery charging time for on-board chargers. The ACU U310 received a 2025 PACE Pilot Award.
Latest developments
In March 2025 the company hosted a webinar on implementing dynamic voltage control within an X-in-1 powertrain domain controller. In April 2025 the Intel Adaptive Control Unit U310 received a 2025 PACE Pilot Award, and the company took part in Auto Show Shanghai 2025, where Intel Automotive presented next-generation SoC and partner initiatives for software-defined vehicles.
