Presented by Licinio Sousa, Synopsys, Inc., and Edo Cohen, Valens Semiconductor
Synopsys and Valens Semiconductor outline how MIPI automotive solutions can enable safe and robust long-reach connectivity for cameras and sensors. The ability for high volumes of data to travel at a fast rate over a long reach infrastructure is now mandatory in automotive vision applications. In addition, maintaining a reliable link can be the difference between successful operation and system failure in a car. In this presentation, Synopsys and Valens present a Valens MIPI A-PHY℠ design for in-vehicle connectivity using Synopsys’ ISO 26262-ready MIPI CSI-2® and MIPI C-PHY℠/D-PHY℠ IP in the FinFET process to meet their latency and bandwidth requirements. The presentation also previews examples of display applications that can benefit from the same architecture.
