Melexis signed a Master Purchase Agreement with BYD, establishing Melexis as a direct supplier in BYD’s global procurement structure. The agreement formalizes an existing collaboration tied to electric vehicle programs.
Under the agreement, BYD gains direct access to Melexis sensors and driver ICs used across electric vehicle (EV) systems, including the powertrain and battery. The portfolio also supports thermal management and other vehicle functions.
The direct supplier model is expected to give the companies’ engineering teams closer alignment on future vehicle platforms and allow Melexis to coordinate its technology roadmap with BYD’s development plans. It also establishes more direct purchasing and supply processes as EV production scales.
