Pericom Delivers: IC Solutions for Automotive Infotainment Systems

Featured Online Article Driving the Digital Car with Analog Components Today’s new cars get decent mileage, are relatively safe and are considered stylish, so auto OEMs must add something special to stand out. Car tech is the cornerstone differentiator of many automobile companies’ product offerings. Lately the “killer features” that consumers want and will pay extra for include tech packages such as: an in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) system with smartphone integration, rear seat LCDs, and all-around cameras for safety (More...) Broad Portfolio for Automotive Infotainment Applications Infotainment systems include more than LCDs, operating systems, and a multimedia SoC. They need buses, bridges, and all the usual digital components found in every embedded system. But they also need analog timers, buffers, clock generators…and a way to boost signals in the noisy EMI environment of the modern car. Explore many timing, power, and all I/O ICs for your infotainment system that your customers and their end customers want. http://www.pericom.com/applications/automotive/ Featured Portfolio PCIe Clock Generators Supports Gen2/Gen3 2 outputs or 4 outputs AEC-Q -100 qualified 32KHz XOs Reduced size 2.0x1.6mm = Board Saving >30% 2ms start up Low power <10µA Tight stability of ±20ppm over temperature AEC-Q -200 qualified USB Charging Charging phones without the need for USB Host Controller 3x faster charging solution than others Video Decoders The only decoder with Adaptive Equalization to extend signal range and improve quality without the need of costly amps that decrease MTBF.

Blog Baby, You Can Drive (the PCIe Clock In) My Car Among all the fancy ARM-based SoCs and peripheral ICs in an IVI system, the humble PCI Express clock generator is what really drives the connected car. With apologies to the Beatles, car tech is all the rage lately now that Apple’s CarPlay legitimizes running Apps in new cars. Although premium marques like BMW, Jaguar, (More...)
