Samsung will make more chips for cars
Samsung has unveiled three new chips that will enter the automotive battle. One of the most innovative and invested industries today is the automotive industry. As advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), autonomous vehicles (AV) and electric vehicles (EVs) become major products in the automotive industry, adding or adding more components to artificial intelligence (AI) and 5G connectivity is essential.
The first of three car versions announced by Samsung is its new Exynos Auto T5123. The T5123 is a new AEC-Q100 compliant telematics control unit specifically designed to enable 5G communication in independent and non-independent vehicles. Using 5G new radio (NR) up to 6 GHz modems, the T5123 can achieve download speeds of up to 5.1 Gbps for real-time communication between the vehicle and its passengers. The device is built around two Cortex-A55 cores supported by embedded LPDDR4x DRAM. The chip also provides high-speed PCIe Gen4 2-channel interface and built-in Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) system. For security, the T5123 also integrates TrustZone and secure startup capabilities.
The second car version is Samsung's Exynos Auto V7. The new chip is Samsung's latest automotive processor, designed for in-car infotainment systems. From a functional standpoint, the Exynos Auto V7 can support up to four displays and 12 camera inputs simultaneously. Best of all, the processor combines features such as bad pixel correction, dynamic range compression, and geometric distortion correction to ensure that the image is distortion-free. From a hardware perspective, the new processor integrates eight 1.5GHz Arm Cortex-A76 cores as well as 11 Arm Mali G76 GPU cores. In Arm terms, the graphics processing unit (GPU) kernel is divided into "small" clusters of three cores for the display and augmented reality head-up display (AR-HUD). In addition, the eight-core "large" cluster provides a central information display function. To support these kernels, V7 has up to 32 GB of LPDDR4x. In addition, the V7 features an integrated neural processing unit (NPU) to assist face, voice, or gesture recognition, an isolated security processor for encrypted operations, and a hardware key based on physically unclonable Function (PUF) technology.
Finally, Samsung announced the S2VPS01. S2VPS01 consists of a high-efficiency three-phase/dual-phase step-down converter, a new automotive power management integrated circuit (PMIC) designed to support Exynos Auto V9 and V7. To support step-down, the new PMIC also incorporates a low voltage step-down regulator (LDO) and real-time clock as well as built-in protections for overvoltage, undervoltage, short circuit, overcurrent, heat shutdown and clock monitoring.
With these three releases, Samsung is offering the industry multiple new automotive subsystem solutions that should help continue this trend of vehicle electrification. Going into 2022, it will be interesting to see what Samsung creates to push car systems to the next level.
