Overview

Description

The RAA2L6060 LiDAR control and data acquisition IC comprises a multi-channel LiDAR frontend for object detection in automotive and industrial applications. It uses the Time of Flight (ToF) principle of light pulses reflected by one or more objects. The timing module sends out trigger pulses to control one or more light emitters. The reflected light pulses are detected by the external common cathode photo array or silicon photomultiplier array and applied to the RAA2L6060 automotive LiDAR data acquisition IC.

Each RAA2L6060 IC has 32 parallel light acquisition channels to amplify, sample, and post-process the reflected light pulses into a multi-dimensional image of the surroundings. The SYNC feature allows operation in master/slave mode to increase the resolution to 64 parallel light acquisition channels by using two RAA2L6060 ICs. A 50MHz Quad-SPI interface transmits the pre-processed acquisition traces to a microcontroller for further post-processing, object detection, and object classification.

Features

  • LiDAR control and data acquisition IC for 2D/3D object detection and distance measurement in automotive and industrial applications.
  • 32 light acquisition channels with integrated transimpedance amplifiers (TIA) and analog-to-digital converters (ADCs).
  • Optional synchronized operation of two RAA2L6060 ICs in master/slave mode to double the light acquisition channels.
  • 50MHz Quad-SPI interface for data readout.
  • 10.0mm x 10.0 mm, 72-QFN package with a 6.5mm EPAD.
