Radar sensors for automotive
Full lineup of 24 and 77/79 GHz radars dedicated to automotive
As part of our comprehensive XENSIV™ family of sensors, we offer a range of RASIC™ 77/79 GHz front-end ICs specifically for radar-based driver assistance systems such as adaptive cruise control and collision warning. Capable of detecting and recognizing objects at a range of up to 250 meters, these RASIC™ solutions enable the driver assistance capabilities required to obtain a five-star rating from Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Program). In fact, our 77/79 GHz SiGe RASIC™ chips lead the MMIC segment. The RASICTM 77/79GHz automotive radar support ASIL C, reducing customer R&D efforts.
Complementing our 77/79 GHz offering, we also deliver the market’s most integrated 24 GHz radar transceiver family in the market, offering board savings of around 30 percent compared with discrete lineups. These devices can be used to build RF front-end modules for mid- and short-range radar applications in different configurations. They are typically deployed for blind spot detection (BSD), lane change assistance (LCA), collision mitigation (CM), parking aid (PA), rear cross traffic alert (RCTA) features.
