…as product branding and enclosure design. SolidRun uses new NXP processor for V2X communications Targeting vehicle telematics, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications, plus road infrastructure connectivity and industrial equipment, SolidRun said its i.MX 8XLite Mini SOM provides a foundation for secure V2X applications. It includes real-time synchronization and control for a variety of smart-city uses. The system combines the high-performance application processing from NXP’s new i.MX 8X processor with V2X acceleration and its RoadLINK SAF5400 single-chip Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC) modem for next-generation telematics, said SolidRun. “In order to accelerate the adoption of autonomous vehicle technology, we need to…

…installed base for its AMHS includes Texas Instruments (TI), NXP Semiconductors, On-Semi, Global Foundry, ST Micro, TSMC, SSMC, and UMC. In addition, SK and BriteLab said they will jointly develop CE and CM business for U.S.-based customers, as well as smart vision systems. BriteLab AMHS uses overhead robots BriteLab said its AMHS includes an Overhead Hoist Transport (OHT) system, which uses ceiling- and floor-mounted robots in high-tech factories. The robots are autonomous vehicles managed and controlled by software to support fast and accurate automation of production lines, it said. Under the new agreement, the two companies said they have established…

…from best-in-class automotive technology leaders, including ARM for processors, NXP for the central compute platform, FLIR for thermal cameras, and Dataspeed for a by-wire control systems, among other functionalities. “The Capability Demonstrator mirrors the behavior of VSI Labs’ physical vehicle so that corner cases can be tested that are too rare, too dangerous, or too difficult to test in actual driving conditions,” says David Frit, senior director, Autonomous and ADAS SoCs for Siemens. The PAVE360 pre-silicon autonomous validation environments serves as a comprehensive platform for multi-supplier collaboration across the entire AV ecosystem. PAVE360 simulation capabilities go beyond processors to create…

…Mahatme, technology lead for the microcontroller business line at NXP Semiconductors. “The simplified hardware of RISC chips requires fewer transistors to be powered, reducing the power consumption. This has made ARM chips popular for battery-powered mobile devices and wearables, while higher performance x86 processors are better suited for personal computers, laptops and servers.” For a given microarchitecture, a lot of trade-offs between power and performance are made through choices such as processor pipeline depth, out-of-order execution, size of the address and data bus, multi-core architectures, frequency of operations and memory hierarchy. Each of these options requires a careful trade-off between…
