Accurate Time Synchronization for Sensor Fusion

Current vehicle platforms include a growing number of sensors for ADAS and in-cabin monitoring, with requirements for synchronization becoming ever more critical. For this reason, SerDes chips on the market implement frame synchronization to ensure that cameras, radars, and lidars are precisely aligned with a host clock.

Valens’ VA7000 family of A-PHY-compliant chipsets go above and beyond what the market has come to expect from SerDes solutions; thanks to the highly precise reference clock, A-PHY chips can synchronize various devices with an accuracy of 100 nanoseconds of jitter. This is best-in-class, as of today.
