London, September 28, 2025, (Oilandgaspress) –– Mercedes-Benz announced a reference design collaboration with Athos Silicon, a specialized semiconductor company established by former engineers at Mercedes-Benz Research & Development North America, Inc. (MBRDNA). This partnership accelerates the adoption and scaling of advanced chiplet architecture originally researched at MBRDNA while supporting next-generation autonomous driving platforms across the industry. The initiative underscores Mercedes-Benz’s leadership in Silicon Valley innovation and strategic ecosystem development.

Mercedes-Benz’s forward-thinking strategy began with pioneering R&D efforts starting in 2020 at MBRDNA, where teams developed breakthrough chiplet technology for autonomous driving computing. Recognizing the technology’s broad applications beyond automotive use cases, Mercedes-Benz facilitated the formation of Athos Silicon as an independent entity to maximize the innovation’s industry impact. Mercedes-Benz contributes substantial intellectual property while enabling the technology to scale with dedicated capital from broader ecosystem partnerships. Athos Silicon’s modular mSoC™ platform delivers adaptable performance scaling, accelerated development cycles, and safety-by-design principles that position Mercedes-Benz at the forefront of the autonomous computing revolution.
