Keysight, Calterah team on automotive radar chipset
The companies have joined forces to support the design, verification, test, and launch of a new generation of automotive millimeter wave radar chipset that will drive development of the connected car supply chain. Keysight recently supported Calterah with the release of its ALPS family of chips, which integrates high-speed analog-to-digital converters, complete radar signal processing baseband, and a high-performance CPU core.
Keysight’s E8740A automotive radar signal analysis and generation solution was used in the process of design and verification of this chip, providing 77-GHz radar signal receiving and transmission characterization, radar target simulation, and testing of the chip’s basic radio frequency parameters.
“ALPS is a system on a chip (SoC), and its chip architecture and performance parameters are far superior to previous generations,” says Dr. Wang Dian, chief mmWave scientist at Calterah. “Keysight’s measurement solution covers the entire range from digital to analog to RF, ensuring the functionality and performance of each sub-module of ALPS, as well as the superior performance of the final SoC. We hope to continue our cooperation with Keysight in the future as we collectively support the automotive technological evolution.”
Qitao Pan, general manager of the Automotive and Energy Solutions Group at Keysight Technologies China adds, “Keysight and Calterah have collaborated on the development of automotive radar chipsets for many years, including the first and second generation of chips, and ultimately the automotive industry supply chain. Keysight has delivered mature and complete testing solutions for key technologies such as millimeter wave radar, automotive Ethernet, automotive wireless interconnect and V2X. We will continue to develop solutions in cooperation with OEMs, as well chip manufacturers, to support the global automotive industry supply chain.”
