Smaller silicon devices are becoming increasingly common in automotive sensors and digital cockpit systems. According to Yole Intelligence, the Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) camera market was valued at $2 billion in 2023 and is forecasted to grow to $2.7 billion by 2029.

To meet this demand, AMD has introduced the newest addition to its automotive-grade FPGA lineup: the Artix™ UltraScale+™ XA AU7P. This cost-optimized FPGA is designed specifically for ADAS sensor systems and in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) applications.

The Artix UltraScale+ XA AU7P features a compact 9×9 mm package, making it the smallest package available in AMD’s 16nm FPGAs and adaptive SoCs. Its lightweight design makes it ideal for use in camera vision and in-vehicle displays. Available in a chip-scale package, it offers improved I/O signal density, enhanced solder joint reliability, and better electrical performance.

As the latest member of AMD’s automotive-grade portfolio, the Artix UltraScale+ device joins other AMD solutions such as the Spartan™ 7, Zynq™ 7000, and Zynq UltraScale+ product families.

Wayne Lyons, Senior Director of Marketing for AMD’s Automotive Segment, noted, “As the automotive market grows, optimizing form factor, power, and media processing is crucial for OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers. With the new Artix UltraScale+ device, AMD reinforces its commitment to providing solutions for ADAS and IVI integration.”

Customers are already integrating the Artix UltraScale+ AU7P FPGAs into ADAS edge devices such as thermal and infrared cameras. These devices offer strong performance for data processing and image/video handling in edge sensors, and they can also connect to in-vehicle displays for enhanced infotainment features.

The AMD Artix UltraScale+ XA AU7P FPGAs provide high signal compute density and optimized I/O in AMD’s most compact automotive offering. The device supports high DSP bandwidth, making it a top choice for cost-sensitive, low-power ADAS edge applications including vision, networking, and security features to ensure safe connectivity.
