Microchip Launches Innovative ASA-ML Camera Solutions with Partners

Transforming Automotive Connectivity with ASA-ML
In an exciting shift within the automotive industry, Microchip Technology is spearheading the transition from proprietary camera connectivity towards open and interoperable solutions, chiefly through the Automotive Serdes Alliance Motion Link (ASA-ML) standard. This initiative, backed by a consortium of over 150 industry-leading companies, aims to revolutionize the way advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) operate.
Key Partnerships Enhance Camera Development
Microchip has teamed up with Nippon Chemi-Con Corporation and NetVision Co. Ltd. to introduce the first-ever ASA-ML camera development platform specifically targeting the Japanese automotive market. By integrating this scalable and high-speed technology, the partnership aims to simplify the implementation of ASA-ML, focusing on crucial hardware-based link-layer security that adheres to emerging cybersecurity regulations in the automotive sector.
Accelerating ASA-ML Adoption
"Having pioneered the ASA-ML chipset via our strategic acquisition of VSI, we are now collaborating with visionaries such as Nippon Chemi-Con and NetVision. This collaboration brings forth a camera development ecosystem tailored to minimize risks and accelerate ASA-ML adoption among Japanese OEMs," says Kevin So, Vice President of Microchip’s communications business unit. The integrated CDTrans camera module and NV061 development emulation board, both built on Microchip's VS775S serializer/deserializer device, represent significant advancements in standardizing solutions for OEMs in Japan.
Industry Commitment to Standardized Solutions
The collaborative spirit in the automotive technology landscape is palpable, as more industry giants like BMW, Ford, and GM join in fostering ASA-ML adoption. These partnerships represent a collective effort to support a comprehensive automotive ecosystem, ensuring the availability of essential development tools, emulation platforms, and robust supply chain networks to OEMs.
Ensuring Future-Ready Designs
As the demand for cameras and sensors in vehicles grows, the importance of scalable, multi-vendor solutions becomes apparent. OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers prioritize flexibility and resilience, paving the way for advanced applications in the realm of autonomous vehicles. The ASA-ML standard offers a pathway for enhanced connectivity that transcends the limitations of closed systems, delivering what modern automotive technology demands.
Showcasing Innovative Technology
Microchip will demonstrate its promising camera/capture card at an upcoming industry event in Japan, further emphasizing its commitment to innovation and technology advancement. Engineering samples of the VS775S serializer/deserializer and evaluation kits are currently available for qualified customers, highlighting Microchip's readiness to meet industry demands.
Focus on Multi-Vendor Collaboration
As automotive manufacturers increasingly turn towards multi-vendor solutions, Microchip, combined with its partners, is actively working to ease the barriers posed by proprietary connectivity protocols. This shift aims to enhance interoperability and scalability, making it easier for manufacturers to adopt next-generation ADAS technologies.
