By the end of 2016, more than half of all new automotive 77 GHz radar systems will be equipped with chips from Infineon Technologies. Thus, one in 15 new cars will use a driver assistance system utilizing the company’s 77 GHz radar chips.

Infineon Technologies and imec are cooperating to develop highly integrated CMOS-based 79 GHz sensor chips for automotive radar applications.

At bauma 2016, Infineon is presenting its latest 24 GHz radar solution, which was developed for the modern, radar-based assistance systems in trucks and construction machines.

Building on our extensive cellular infrastructure experience and expertise, Infineon introduces a new family of Gallium Nitride (GaN) on Silicon Carbide (SiC) RF power transistors which enable cellular amplifier designers to build smaller, more powerful and more flexible transmitters. 

 Infineon Technologies AG  announced that it has shipped its ten millionth high-frequency radar chip. The 77-GHz chips are used in radar-based driver assistance systems that recognize objects at ranges of up to 250 meters. Infineon estimates that in the year 2014 nearly 50 percent of 77-GHz radar systems in vehicles were equipped with Infineon technology.
