Whitepaper
Automotive electronics are evolving faster than ever, with manufacturers bringing feature-rich infotainment systems and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) to market while simultaneously developing fully autonomous vehicles. As automotive electronics adopt higher bandwidth processors, SoCs, and FPGAs, these designs and their associated timing requirements are becoming more complex; thus, the need for a higher number of reference clocks, in single-ended and differential formats, at varying frequencies. Satisfying this growing and diverse set of reference clock requirements can be simplified using frequency-flexible, AEC-Q100 qualified clock generators instead of legacy quartz-based timing components.
