STMicroelectronics NV is a manufacturer and provider of semiconductors. The firm develops and markets a wide range of products, such as custom devices and semi-custom devices ], discrete and standard commodity components, and application-specific standard and integrated circuits. It also produces and sells power modules, switches, clocks, data converters, automotive ADAS devices, imaging and photonics solutions, silicon chips and smartcards. STM uses various chip fabrication technologies, such as advanced FD-SOI, CMOS, embedded non-volatile memories, RF-SOI, optical sensing, analog and MEMS, mixed-signal, and smart power processes.
It serves customers in several markets, such as industrial, automotive, computers, personal electronics, communications equipment, and peripherals. In May 2022, STMicroelectronics introduced its unique global-shutter CMOS image sensors for driver monitoring systems. The unique global-shutter sensor, VB56G4A, leverages the firm's in-house investment in manufacturing enhanced 3D-stacked back-side illuminated image sensors. These are smaller, more reliable, and more sensitive than front-side illuminated conventional sensors typically utilized in first-generation DMSs.
