Enabling safer and more secure device systems
Functional safety and security are essential considerations in today’s automotive systems. Many of our radar devices are International Organization for Standardization 26262-compliant and Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) B-certified. Our PMIC portfolio for radar helps your designs achieve ASIL B or C, including integrated fault monitoring and protection, without the need for external monitors and watchdog integrated circuits – thus saving both solution cost and size. With functional safety documents (failure-in-time rate, failure modes effects and diagnostic analysis, functional safety manuals), our PMICs help simplify the overall functional safety design process.

Automotive RFCMOS 77GHz radar module reference design with object data output over dual CAN FD
Vision-based ADAS systems struggle in conditions like snow, darkness, heavy rain. Radar overcomes these obstacles adding robustness. Growing radar adoption is driven by trends of smaller size, lower power and stronger price/ performance ratios. This enables and supports various ADAS use cases from radar-based front collision control and adaptive cruise control to corner radar for blind spot detection to valet parking or child presence detection.
