About

24 GHz radar sensors for automotive applications

Infineon's XENSIV™ 24 GHz MMIC (Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit) operates within the 24 GHz ISM band (24.00–24.25 GHz) for precise signal generation and reception. Built on a 24 GHz fundamental voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), this high-performance radar IC delivers reliable, interference-free sensing. All components are fully qualified to AEC-Q100 automotive standards, ensuring exceptional durability and long-term reliability.

Cost-effective 24 GHz short-range radar technology

Infineon's 24 GHz pulsed Doppler radar is ideally suited for cost-effective implementations, delivering ultra-low power consumption, ease of use, and a high level of integration. Perfectly designed for short-range radar applications such as kick sensors for hands-free trunk opening, this radar solution simplifies development while maintaining outstanding sensing performance.

Robust and reliable performance in harsh environments

24 GHz radar excels in environmental robustness, making it a superior choice for outdoor sensing applications. Thanks to its lower absorption coefficient compared to higher frequency radar technologies, it is significantly less susceptible to rain, snow, and adverse weather conditions, ensuring consistent and reliable radar detection performance in any environment.
