Automotive SerDes chipset

14 November 2012 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

Texas Instruments introduced the DS90UB913Q serialiser and DS90UB914Q deserialiser, the newest additions to its FPD-Link III automotive-grade chipset family.

The SerDes chipset provides a seamless video and data interface to megapixel driver assist camera modules, with no software overhead and fewer wires, resulting in reduced power consumption, cost and weight. These system-level SerDes enhancements are accelerating the adoption of camera safety systems in the mid- and entry-level vehicle segments.

Applications include front-view camera for collision avoidance and traffic sign/pedestrian recognition, rear-view camera for backup protection, and surround-view cameras for parking assistance.

Camera systems have become an important automotive safety component, typically combining multiple camera modules with advanced image analysis to help drivers monitor road conditions, detect hazards and avoid collisions. Automotive safety system designers can use TI’s FPD-Link III SerDes chipsets to connect cameras and displays to an electronic control unit (ECU) with thinner, more flexible cabling.

The DS90UB913Q serialiser features a 25 mm² footprint, with 10 MHz to 100 MHz pixel clock and 10- and 12-bit pixel depth. The DS90UB914Q deserialiser automatically adapts EQ gain, compensating for dynamic and long-term changes in cable loss.
