Elmos Semiconductor SE (FSE: ELG) will showcase innovative integrated circuit (IC) solutions for automotive and industrial electronics at electronica in Munich from November 10 to 13, 2026, the company announced. Under the motto “We enable what matters,” the Leverkusen-based fabless semiconductor specialist will focus on applications that enhance safety, efficiency, and comfort – ranging from intelligent lighting and motor control to reliable environment detection and secure data communication. The company will also show for the first time how proven automotive technologies can unlock new possibilities in humanoid robotics.
The announcement matters because it signals Elmos’s strategic push into robotics, a move that could open a new growth area for the company beyond its core automotive market. Humanoid robotics, while still emerging, demands many of the same capabilities that modern vehicles require: precise motion control, reliable sensors, and secure power and data distribution. According to Elmos, it has already identified more than 120 potential IC applications across robotics architecture in the areas of motion, sensing, power, and connectivity. Building on decades of automotive experience and systems expertise, the company believes it can transfer proven technologies to new robotic applications.
Elmos’s automotive portfolio, which will be on display at the trade fair, underscores the breadth of its technology. For environment detection, its ultrasonic distance measurement solutions support driver-assistance systems all around the vehicle, from parking to automated driving, enabling reliable 360-degree detection. Sensor ICs measure and process parameters such as pressure, temperature, rain, and light, with integrated signal processing filtering out interference for safety-critical applications including braking systems and battery management. Its lighting ICs dynamically control LEDs to improve visibility and enable communication with other drivers. Motor control ICs precisely manage small electrical motors in both 12-volt and 48-volt architectures, enhancing comfort and energy efficiency. And for safety, Elmos offers eFuse solutions for smart power distribution, airbag deployment solutions, and a Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG) that won the 2026 German Innovation Award, providing a foundation for secure cryptographic encryption in automotive, industrial, and IoT applications.
The company’s presence at electronica, a leading global trade fair for electronics, comes as the semiconductor industry increasingly looks to robotics and industrial automation as long-term growth drivers. For Elmos, the move into humanoid robotics represents a natural extension of its automotive expertise, potentially diversifying its revenue base while leveraging its existing IP and manufacturing relationships.

Elmos, which has been developing intelligent microchip solutions for over 40 years, primarily serves the automotive industry. As a fabless company specializing in analog mixed-signal ICs, it positions itself as a market leader in applications powering megatrends such as autonomous driving, electromobility, and software-defined vehicles. The company will exhibit in Hall C3, Booth 141.
