Sonix Launches AEC-Q100 Grade 1 Automotive Microcontroller Series SNA8F5762JG
the SNA8F5762JG series, officially entering the automotive sector. The SNA8F5762JG operates at a frequency of up to 24MHz
and is certified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1. The operating temperature range is -40°~125°C. It is ideally for a wide range of vehicle
environments and has superior features such as high performance, high reliability, excellent anti-interference ability and cost-effectiveness.
The SNA8F5762JG serves a wide range of applications, including electric seats, front lamps, powered tailgates, dynamic taillights,
ambient lighting, wiper control, window and door control, air conditioning control, and automotive rearview mirrors, thus enabling
diverse in-vehicle applications and control functions.
The SNA8F5762JG series is embedded with 18 KB of Flash memory and 1 KB of RAM, providing a wide operating voltage range of 1.8 to 5.5V.
It supports a rich set of communication interfaces, including one I2C, one SPI, and two UART interfaces, allowing for various communication modes
in automotive control. Additionally, it is equipped with a 12-bit, 12-channel ADC for capturing and processing data from various sensors, such as temperature sensors. The series also includes three general-purpose 16-bit timers, one 16-bit capture timer, and three external interrupt sources to facilitate in-vehicle motor control. It provides a QFN20 (3mm x 3mm) package, which enables the reduction of the number of external peripheral components and minimizes the overall size of end products.
Intelligent and electronic car functions have become the mainstream of new car specifications. The automotive electronics market is experiencing significant growth, and its applications are becoming increasingly widespread. In 2023, the global automotive electronics market reached approximately 315.9 billion US dollars, while Taiwan's automotive electronics production value reached 409.5 billion NT dollars. All suppliers are actively striving to enter the supply chains of major automotive electronics companies. A key requirement for entry is passing the AEC-Q100 certification promoted by the Automotive Electronics Council.
AEC-Q100 has extremely stringent requirements for the design quality, safety, and reliability of chip products, making it a crucial gateway for IC design companies entering the automotive sector. Sonix Technology, which has long focused on consumer electronics products, launched its first automotive-grade MCU that has passed the certification. This demonstrates that Sonix’s MCU products implement strict control procedures for component design, manufacturing, testing, and quality control, and will continue to provide customers with the best products that adhere to high quality and reliability standards.
About AEC-Q100
The AEC-Q100 standard is a set of rigorous requirements and tests that electronic components must pass to ensure their suitability for use in automotive applications. The Automotive Electronics Council (AEC) has established different certification standards based on product categories to create a common reference for the verification of electronic components. It places emphasis on the requirements of Statistical Process Control (SPC), with standards that are even stricter than those in the consumer product market, which traditionally relies on JEDEC for verification.
