Texas Instruments (TI) is bringing a higher degree of precision and intelligence to a range of applications spanning the automotive, factory and building automation, and medical markets. TI’s new millimeter wave (mmWave) single-chip complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) portfolio includes five solutions across two families of 76- to 81-GHz sensors with a complete end-to-end development platform.
Available for sampling today, the AWR1x and IWR1x sensor portfolio delivers up to three times more accurate sensing than current mmWave solutions on the market. Designers can select the best processing power for their needs with a fully integrated CMOS single-chip harnessing a best-in-class digital signal processor (DSP) and microcontroller (MCU) or a single-chip with just an MCU or DSP.
IWR1x and AWR1x mmWave sensors can sense accurately through plastic, dry wall, clothing, glass and many other materials, and through environmental conditions such as lighting, rain, dust, fog or frost.
Designers can not only enhance advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving safety features – including ISO 26262, which enables Automotive safety integrity level (ASIL)-B – but also deliver new features such as automated parking assistance, pedestrian detection and occupancy and driver monitoring.
