ON Semiconductor Unveils Advanced Image Coprocessor Series for Next-Generation Automotive Cameras

Published2015.08.06 20:25

August 4, 2015 - ON Semiconductor (NASDAQ: ON; www.onsemi.com), driving energy-efficient innovations, has introduced a new series of image coprocessors that enable 1080p wide dynamic range automotive camera systems. Designed to work with ON Semiconductor's high-performance 2 megapixel (MP) and 1.2 MP image sensor devices, the AP020x series of new coprocessors provides a complete solution for automotive rear- and surround-view cameras.

“The introduction of our automotive coprocessors allows us to deliver even higher quality solutions to our leading automotive customers worldwide by offering a complete camera solution for both high-performance 1080p and 720p video,” said Sandor Barna, vice president of the Automotive Imaging and Scanning Division at ON Semiconductor. “We have added a number of automotive-specific features such as higher resolution, various interfaces and ASIL support to meet our customers’ specific requirements.”

All of the new image coprocessors released this time include Adaptive Local Tone Mapping (ALTM) and an advanced HDR color pipeline. The AP0200, AP0201, and AP0202 support up to 2 MP 1080p image sensors, while the AP0102AT supports up to 1.2 MP 720p image sensors.

All of these coprocessors offer Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) A and B functional safety features and support 30 frames per second (fps) at 1080p, 45 fps at 960p, and 60 fps at 720p. They also support Ethernet or parallel output interfaces, as well as I2C, Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI), and general-purpose input/output (GPIO) ports. The operating temperature range is -40 °C to +105 °C (ambient) and is fully AEC-Q100 compliant.

The AP0200AT image co-processor is optimized for rear-view cameras and provides Ethernet output. It features a built-in Spatial Transformation Engine (STE) that enables sophisticated overlay graphics engine functions, as well as lens distortion correction and dewarping.
The AP0201AT image co-processor also has an Ethernet output and provides Ethernet-based surround view.
The AP0202AT image co-processor enables digital surround view and uses 24-bit parallel output.
The AP0102AT image co-processor includes STE and overlay graphics engines for the 1 MP/720p rear camera.

The AP020x family will be available as an optimized solution, combining the new AR0230AT 2 MP 1080p sensor with existing image sensors such as the 1 MP AR0140AT, AR0132AT, and AR0136AT. This combined sensor and coprocessor solution provides key automotive customers with the broadest range of options for various market segments, while accelerating time to market.

Purchase Information

The AP0200AT, AP0201AT, AP0202AT, and AP0102AT are all available in the VFBGA-100 package and are available for sampling now. The AR0230AT is available in an IBGA-80 package and samples are available upon request. All products are scheduled for mass production in the third quarter of this year.
