ULP sensor read-out ASIC with ISO15693 compliant NFC

This ASIC is part of a battery powered wearable device. It has an on-chip ISO15693 compliant NFC to power the device externally and communicate with a standard NFC reader. The sensor readout contains an ultra-low-power front-end. A custom digital sequencer is implemented to optimise device power consumption. Features

Readout ASIC for IR imaging detectors and cameras

Gated Imaging systems use a gated imaging sensor and a VCSEL (Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser) to generate a clear image and to generate range maps. This readout ASIC is connected with the IR (InfraRed) image detector using flip-chip technology. Features

Time-of-Flight level measurement ASIC for automotive

High-voltage automotive qualified ASIC for the detection of fluid levels in a car (oil level, fuel level, …). The readout is based on US (UltraSound) transducers combined with a time-of-flight detection principle. The transducer elements require high-voltage drivers that are monolithically integrated on the ASIC. Features

Time-Of-Flight receiver channel ASIC with 10psec resolution

This ASIC is part of safety and surveillance systems, ADAS (Advanced driver-assistance systems) and gesture recognition applications. It uses a laser-pulsed oF (Time-of-Flight) detection principle to calculate the distance to objects using a state-of-the-art 16-bit resolution TDC (Time-to-Digital Convertor). The design is tailored towards functional safety SIL-2. Features
