Due to harness density and length, today’s car architecture has been pushed to its limits of space, weight, and complexity. The ability to use unshielded cables and simple connectors in a plug and play format using the VA7000 delivers reduced total system cost and an efficient solution for car makers.
“Sumitomo Electric plays a key role in automotive interconnectivity. We are happy to collaborate on the Valens Semiconductor VA7000 video connectivity chipsets to help automotive OEMs and Tier 1s stay ahead of the curve,” said Hiroki Hirai, General Manager of CAS-EV Development Promotion Division, at Sumitomo Electric. “At CES 2023, Valens Semiconductor will demonstrate how their chipsets integrate with our world-class harnesses.”
As car companies integrate sensors requiring higher bandwidth and EMC into next-generation ADAS and autonomous systems, interoperability among multiple vendors’ components will be crucial. To address this need, test equipment vendors are beginning to create off-the-shelf testing solutions.
“At Keysight, we recognize that it is critical to address the growing market demands for high-speed digital interfaces for next-generation in-vehicle connectivity,” said Thomas Goetzl, vice president and general manager for Keysight’s Automotive and Energy solutions business unit. “The compliance test solution from Keysight represents yet another way we are supporting the evolution and standardization of technologies for our automotive customers.”
