?(ADI)今日宣布與First Sensor ......" />
北京2019年6月27日 /美通社/ -- Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI)今日宣布與First Sensor AG合作,共同開發(fā)旨在加速推出自主傳感技術(shù)的產(chǎn)品,服務(wù)于交通、智能農(nóng)業(yè)、工業(yè)制造及其他行業(yè)應(yīng)用中的無人駕駛汽車、飛行器和水下交通工具。作為合作的一部分,ADI和First Sensor將開發(fā)更小尺寸的LIDAR信號鏈,以幫助制造商為其自主安全系統(tǒng)注入傳感和感知技術(shù)時,能夠?qū)崿F(xiàn)更高的系統(tǒng)性能以及更小的尺寸、更低的重量、功耗和成本。兩家公司還計劃開發(fā)面向汽車和工業(yè)制造應(yīng)用的其他LIDAR產(chǎn)品。
ADI公司負責LIDAR的總經(jīng)理Stewart Sellars表示:“我們合作的第一步是優(yōu)化ADI行業(yè)領(lǐng)先的跨阻放大器(TIA)和First Sensor的雪崩光電二極管(APD),以便能夠為客戶提供更強大、更高效的LIDAR解決方案,為LIDAR系統(tǒng)在自動駕駛市場的大規(guī)模商用提供更好的支持?!?nbsp;
在超過25年的時間里,ADI公司一直在開發(fā)用于交通安全的傳感器技術(shù)。最新進展包括專為將寬動態(tài)范圍光電流轉(zhuǎn)換為低阻抗電壓信號而設(shè)計的多通道TIA。First Sensor也擁有超過25年的LIDAR APD制造經(jīng)驗,APD是將光轉(zhuǎn)換為光電流的高度敏感的探測器陣列。優(yōu)化APD和TIA之間的互連至關(guān)重要,因為它對本底噪聲和所能實現(xiàn)的帶寬有非常關(guān)鍵的影響。對這兩個參數(shù)的改善將直接轉(zhuǎn)換為LIDAR系統(tǒng)的更高性能,使該系統(tǒng)可在更遠的距離以更高的精度檢測到對象。
“隨著客戶期望重新專注于實現(xiàn)既經(jīng)濟又具技術(shù)含量的解決方案,LIDAR系統(tǒng)的市場正在逐步成熟,”First Sensor首席執(zhí)行官Dirk Rothweiler博士表示:“使APD和TIA相互適配是這一演變過程中具有關(guān)鍵意義的下一步。通過擴大我們與ADI公司的合作,我們的客戶將受益于更高的LIDAR接收器性能?!?nbsp;
LIDAR是First Sensor的增長動力。該公司通過前向整合以及其與公司盈利增長策略相一致的加速成本路線圖,正在為量產(chǎn)需求做準備。
First Sensor和ADI公司將各自提供一個通用評估板,系統(tǒng)制造商可使用該評估板測試整合解決方案。
此次與First Sensor的合作標志著ADI進入實施其Drive360?自動駕駛解決方案策略的下一階段。ADI的Drive360技術(shù)產(chǎn)品系列利用ADI在高性能MEMS、RF/毫米波和光電學/光學技術(shù)方面的核心競爭力,使ADI能夠為汽車行業(yè)提供整體解決方案,并成為滿足高度自動化和自主駕駛技術(shù)要求的專門合作伙伴。關(guān)于Drive360的更多信息,請訪問http://www.analog.com/pr190627/LIDAR 。
