Santa Clara, CA and Kyoto, Japan, Dec. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ROHM Semiconductor today announced the adoption of its PMICs in power reference designs focused on the next-generation cockpit SoCs Dolphin3 (REF67003) and Dolphin5 (REF67005) by Telechips, a major fabless semiconductor manufacturer for automotive applications headquartered in Pangyo, South Korea. Intended for use inside the cockpits of European automakers, these designs are scheduled for mass production in 2025.
加利福尼亚州圣克拉拉和日本京都，2024年12月12日（GLOBE NEWSWIRE）——罗姆半导体今天宣布，总部位于韩国板桥的主要汽车应用无晶圆厂半导体制造商Telechips的下一代座舱SoC Dolphin3（REF67003）和Dolphin5（REF67005）在功率参考设计中采用其PMIC，该设计侧重于下一代座舱SoC Dolphin3（）和Dolphin5（）。这些设计计划在欧洲汽车制造商的驾驶舱内使用，计划于2025年量产。

These solutions support diverse model development by combining sub-PMICs and DrMOS with the main PMIC for SoCs.
自2021年以来，罗姆和Telechips一直在进行技术交流，从SoC芯片设计的早期阶段就建立了密切的合作关系。作为实现这一目标的第一步，罗姆的电源解决方案已集成到Telechips的电源参考设计中。这些解决方案通过将子 PMIC 和 dRMO 与 SoC 的主要 PMIC 相结合，支持多样化的模型开发。
For infotainment applications, the Dolphin3 application processor (AP) power reference design includes the BD96801Qxx-C main PMIC for SoCs. Similarly, the Dolphin5 AP power reference design developed for next-generation digital cockpits combines the BD96805Qxx-C and BD96811Fxx-C main PMICs for SoC with the BD96806Qxx-C sub-PMIC for SoC, improving overall system efficiency and reliability.
对于信息娱乐应用，Dolphin3应用处理器（AP）电源参考设计包括用于 SoC 的 BD96801Qxx-C 主 PMIC。同样，为下一代数字座舱开发的Dolphin5 AP电源参考设计将BD96805qxx-c和bd96811FXX-C和bd96811FXX-C主PMIC与用于SoC的bd96806qxx-C子PMIC相结合，提高了整体系统的效率和可靠性。
Modern cockpits are equipped with multiple displays, such as instrument clusters and infotainment systems, with each automotive application becoming increasingly multifunctional. As the processing power required for automotive SoCs increases, power ICs like PMICs must be able to support high currents while maintaining high efficiency. At the same time, manufacturers require flexible solutions that can accommodate different vehicle types and model variations with minimal circuit modifications. ROHM SoC PMICs address these challenges with high efficiency operation and internal memory (One Time Programmable ROM) that allows for custom output voltage settings and sequence control, enabling compatibility with large currents when paired with a sub-PMIC or DrMOS.
现代驾驶舱配备了多个显示器，例如仪表盘和信息娱乐系统，每种汽车应用都变得越来越多功能。随着汽车 SoC 所需处理能力的增加，像 PMIC 这样的功率 IC 必须能够在保持高效率的同时支持高电流。同时，制造商需要灵活的解决方案，以最少的电路修改即可适应不同的车辆类型和型号变化。RoHM SoC PMIC 通过高效运行和内部存储器（一次性可编程 ROM）来应对这些挑战，允许自定义输出电压设置和顺序控制，与子 PMIC 或 dRMOS 配对时能够兼容大电流。

"We are pleased that our power reference designs have been adopted by Telechips, a company with a strong track record in automotive SoCs. As ADAS continues to evolve and cockpits become more multifunctional, power supply ICs must handle larger currents while minimizing current consumption. ROHM SoC PMICs meet the high current demands of next-generation cockpits by adding a DrMOS or sub-PMIC in the stage after the main PMIC. This setup achieves high efficiency operation that contributes to lower power consumption. Going forward, ROHM will continue our partnership with Telechips to deepen our understanding of next-generation cockpits and ADAS, driving further evolution in the automotive sector through rapid product development."
“我们很高兴我们的功率参考设计被Telechips采用，该公司在汽车SoC领域有着良好的往绩。随着 ADAS 的不断发展和驾驶舱变得越来越多功能，电源 IC 必须处理更大的电流，同时最大限度地降低电流消耗。罗姆 SoC PMIC 通过在主 PMIC 之后的舞台上增加一个 dRMOS 或子 PMIC 来满足下一代座舱的高电流需求。这种设置实现了高效运行，有助于降低功耗。展望未来，罗姆将继续与Telechips合作，加深我们对下一代驾驶舱和ADAS的理解，通过快速产品开发推动汽车行业的进一步发展。”
