In the context of the rapid advancement of automotive intelligence and electrification, automotive-grade chips, as the core of automotive electronic systems, directly impact driving safety and industrial competitiveness. Given the challenges of complex chip manufacturing processes, diverse failure modes, and stringent environmental adaptability requirements, establishing a 'zero defect' quality management system is essential. This study focuses on the entire lifecycle of chips, starting from design and development, production, supply chain coordination, and quality testing. It outlines the framework of a 'zero defect' quality management system, clarifies key control points and technical methods at each stage, and proposes implementation strategies from organizational, technical, and cultural perspectives. The coordinated optimization of all system components forms a closed loop for quality improvement, providing theoretical and practical support for enhancing the quality of the automotive-grade chip industry.
