領(lǐng)先同行瑞薩OSC晶振專用于人工智能，瑞薩文藝復(fù)興我們的長(zhǎng)期發(fā)展戰(zhàn)略是如何將公司定位為一家全方位的全球技術(shù)解決方案提供商，致力于為用戶提供高品質(zhì)的SPXO晶振產(chǎn)品，瑞薩公司在美國(guó)、歐洲和中國(guó)都有廣泛的業(yè)務(wù)。由于收購(gòu)了Intersil、IDT、Dialog Semiconductor和Celeno，我們現(xiàn)在擁有了豐富的設(shè)計(jì)能力市場(chǎng)領(lǐng)先的嵌入式處理器專業(yè)知識(shí)擁有四項(xiàng)核心模擬和混合信號(hào)能力:傳感器和傳感器信號(hào)調(diào)理, 連通性，驅(qū)動(dòng)和動(dòng)力管理.

在每一種情況下，這些公司及其工程師和科學(xué)家都為我們的關(guān)鍵增長(zhǎng)目標(biāo)做出了重大貢獻(xiàn)，2019年至2021年期間，總收入的CAGR增長(zhǎng)了17.7%，同期營(yíng)業(yè)利潤(rùn)率增長(zhǎng)了16.9%。也許最能說(shuō)明問(wèn)題的事實(shí)是，在2020年至2022年期間，我們的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施和工業(yè)業(yè)務(wù)分別增長(zhǎng)了33%和37%，而我們的物聯(lián)網(wǎng)(IoT)部門在CAGR的增長(zhǎng)驚人地達(dá)到了79%(有機(jī)增長(zhǎng)37%)。

工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)(IIoT)市場(chǎng)以如此迅猛的速度擴(kuò)張并不令人驚訝。對(duì)于renesas瑞薩晶振來(lái)說(shuō)，它標(biāo)志著一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)，通過(guò)實(shí)現(xiàn)幾乎同時(shí)成熟的三個(gè)關(guān)鍵技術(shù)領(lǐng)域的融合，加速我們的客戶和生態(tài)系統(tǒng)合作伙伴的采用:物聯(lián)網(wǎng)、5G連接和人工智能(AI)。我們稱之為人工智能物聯(lián)網(wǎng)，或AIoT，這一趨勢(shì)正在推動(dòng)我們收集、存儲(chǔ)、處理、分發(fā)、保護(hù)和增強(qiáng)數(shù)據(jù)的方式發(fā)生轉(zhuǎn)變，以便將其轉(zhuǎn)化為我們可以學(xué)習(xí)的可操作情報(bào)。

這種巨大的變化需要從集中式的基于云的架構(gòu)轉(zhuǎn)向分布式的基于邊緣的設(shè)計(jì)，而這些產(chǎn)品之中隨處都需要應(yīng)用高品質(zhì)的有源晶振產(chǎn)品，同時(shí)，這種設(shè)計(jì)使用微處理器和微處理器等微小的機(jī)器學(xué)習(xí)(ML)節(jié)點(diǎn)來(lái)定義端點(diǎn)，加速數(shù)學(xué)模型并提高深度神經(jīng)網(wǎng)絡(luò)的性能。

雖然許多人可能會(huì)將人工智能與機(jī)器人助手等未來(lái)的消費(fèi)應(yīng)用聯(lián)系起來(lái)，但事實(shí)是，當(dāng)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)端點(diǎn)節(jié)點(diǎn)創(chuàng)建以85%的CAGR (2017-2025)爆炸式增長(zhǎng)時(shí)，工業(yè)領(lǐng)域?qū)⒏惺艿胶艽笠徊糠殖醪接绊懀鶕?jù)IDC的數(shù)據(jù)，產(chǎn)生了幾乎令人難以置信的73 zetabytes的數(shù)據(jù)。從應(yīng)用的角度來(lái)看，這些增長(zhǎng)線將在預(yù)測(cè)性維護(hù)、快速缺陷檢測(cè)、生物識(shí)別和資產(chǎn)跟蹤等領(lǐng)域開辟新的市場(chǎng)和收入渠道。

這就是我們2022年最新、最重要的收購(gòu)之一——Reality AI的原因。該公司在開發(fā)工業(yè)領(lǐng)域的算法方面尤其強(qiáng)大，這有助于實(shí)現(xiàn)我們的長(zhǎng)期愿景，即將高級(jí)信號(hào)處理和數(shù)學(xué)建模與人工智能相結(jié)合，以構(gòu)建我們可以在嵌入式處理器上實(shí)現(xiàn)的機(jī)器學(xué)習(xí)模型——從16位到64位。

Reality AI收購(gòu)是實(shí)現(xiàn)我們AIoT愿景的重要組成部分，今年還包括對(duì)Syntiant和Arduino等公司的投資，這些公司正在將我們的觸角延伸到更復(fù)雜的用例，以及與Tiny ML財(cái)團(tuán)的白金贊助。領(lǐng)先同行瑞薩OSC晶振專用于人工智能.

In each case, these companies and their engineers and scientists are contributing significantly to our key growth objectives, with overall revenue increasing at a CAGR of 17.7% between 2019 and 2021 and operating margin growing 16.9% over the same period. Perhaps most telling is the fact that, between 2020 and 2022, our infrastructure and industrial businesses grew by 33% and 37%, respectively, while our internet of things (IoT) segment saw an astounding 79% jump (37% organically) in CAGR.

That the industrial IoT (IIoT) marketplace is expanding at such a torrid pace is not surprising. For Renesas it signals an opportunity to accelerate adoption among our customers and ecosystem partners by enabling the convergence of three key technology areas that are maturing at roughly the same time: IoT, 5G connectivity and artificial intelligence (AI). We call this AI IoT, or AIoT, and the trend is driving a shift in how we collect, store, process, distribute, secure and power data in order to turn it into actionable intelligence we can learn from.

Such a sea change entails a move away from centralized, cloud-based architectures to distributed, edge-based designs that use tiny machine learning (ML) nodes like MCUs and MPUs to define the endpoint, accelerate mathematical models and improve the performance of deep neural networks.

While many people might associate AI with futuristic consumer applications like robotic assistants, the fact is that much of the initial impact will be felt in the industrial space where when IoT endpoint node creation is exploding at an 85% CAGR (2017-2025), yielding an almost unfathomable 73 zetabytes of data, according to IDC. From an applications perspective, these growth lines will open new markets and revenue channels in areas such as predictive maintenance, rapid defect detection, biometric recognition and asset tracking to name just a few.

That’s what led us to one of our most recent and significant 2022 acquisitions – Reality AI. The company is especially strong in developing algorithms for the industrial space, which is helping to fulfill our long-term vision of combining advanced signal processing and mathematical modeling with AI to build machine learning models that we can implement on our embedded processors – from 16 to 64 bits.

The Reality AI acquisition is an important component of realizing our AIoT vision, which this year also included investments in companies like Syntiant and Arduino that are extending our reach into more complex use cases, as well as a platinum sponsorship with the Tiny ML Consortium.

For Renesas, those strategic investments are part of a long-term, three-pronged approach to enabling AIoT, which includes access to world-class MCU and MPU devices and a commitment to the broader AIoT ecosystem, where we have more than 200 technology partners. Together with 5G and other forms of wireless connectivity, such as WiFi 6/6E/7 and near-field communications (NFC), we are enabling a fully distributed AIoT network that will revolutionize how the industrial workplace is managed by bringing constant, on-device learning and decision making to the factory floor.
