(San Jose, CA) Infotainment systems, in-car entertainment (I.C.E.) and in-vehicle infotainment (I.V.I.) are the same term; and, they are interchangeably used. Specifically, the aforementioned term is a collection of hardware and software, in automobiles. This device of hardware and software provides audio, and/or, video entertainment. The origins of infotainment systems, in-car entertainment and in-vehicle infotainment begin with the simple car audio system. The same car audio system that; once played the radio, a cassette tape or a compact disc. The incorporation of an automotive navigation system, was the next step; technologically and logically speaking. Recently, Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. announced that, it possesses a high level of expertise when it comes to infotainment systems. Specifically, the aforementioned business revealed that, its proprietary technology solutions are in Mediatek’s AUTUS I20 (MT2712). The latter, is an in-vehicle infotainment platform (I.V.I.). Technically; the proprietary technology solutions are MAX9286, MAX96705, MAX15007, MAX8902 and MAX20010.
Maxim’s MAX9286, MAX96705, MAX15007, MAX8902 and MAX20010 as proprietary technology solutions; do the following things. To start; these technology solutions enhance automotive video distribution, and, provide power management innovations. The aforementioned; is essential in order to meet car manufacturers’ strict requirements, and, tier-1 suppliers’ strict requirements. These technology solutions also include; Maxim’s gigabit multimedia serial link serializer (G.M.S.L.), and, deserializer (SerDes). The aforementioned, enables video transmission in infotainment systems. However and returning to, Mediatek’s AUTUS I20 (MT2712). The latter, is a high performance hexa-core infotainment platform. Additionally, it is best characterized by its flexible interface that, supports multiple displays. This infotainment platform enables the delivery of information and content; from the automobile’s sensors, and, multimedia sources. As a result, the driver becomes linked to his or her automobile. This phenomenon dramatically improves the driving experience, passenger safety, connectivity and level of personal entertainment. JC Hsu is the Corporate Vice President of Mediatek, Inc. Through a press statement, Mr. Hsu said the following. “MediaTek’s IVI platform meets automakers’ and auto suppliers’ requirements for high levels of integration, comprehensive multimedia packages, premium features and full connectivity. Working with Maxim on video distribution and power management helps support its scalability, allowing partners to select a platform that meets their specific needs.”
For Mediatek’s AUTUS I20 (MT2712); Maxim’s MAX9286, MAX96705, MAX15007, MAX8902 and MAX20010 provide the following key advantages. The key advantages, are in relation to a competitor, of course. The key advantages are next-generation G.M.S.L. SerDes, robust connectivity and power management. The next-generation G.M.S.L. SerDes, improves the video data delivery distance, from a transmission source. The distance has been improved, or strengthened, from 12 meters to 15 meters. The latter, enables a surround view of video from a single chip, to four input channels. Additionally; the frame rate is synchronized, and, the SoC is offloaded. Furthermore, the MIPI-CSI-2 output, is fully enabled and supported. Overall, the electromagnetic interference (EMI) is reduced, through, a spread spectrum feature. The robust connectivity, is the essence of the G.M.S.L. SerDes technology solution. The latter, maintains data integrity for more than 15 meters. The power management, is enabled by Maxim’s MAX20010. The latter; enables a dynamic voltage scaling, and, high current buck conversion. This allows Mediatek’s AUTUS I20 (MT2712), to become upgraded. The upgrade is to a faster and higher voltage, 4GB LPDDR4/DDR4 Ram Memory. This transfers to the processor more power, which in turn, enables more multimedia. The more multimedia options include video heavy applications that, are also seen, in various types of in-car display monitors.
To end, Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. (NASDAQ: MXIM) did release a press statement. Randall Wollschlager is the Vice President of the Automotive Business Unit at Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. Through a press statement, Mr. Wollschlager said the following. “The robust growth of automotive infotainment systems means it is more important than ever to deliver solutions that help our partners meet their high-performance requirements with the greatest efficiency and flexibility. By working closely with MediaTek, we are driving the automotive industry forward with this powerful in-vehicle infotainment technology that delivers advanced features and trail-blazing integration.” As previously stated, Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. recently announced that, it possesses a high level of expertise when it comes to infotainment systems. Specifically, the aforementioned business revealed that, its proprietary technology solutions are in Mediatek’s AUTUS I20 (MT2712). The latter, is an in-vehicle infotainment platform (I.V.I.). Lastly and technically; the proprietary technology solutions are MAX9286, MAX96705, MAX15007, MAX8902 and MAX20010.
