The wide range of automotive vision applications for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) has driven a broad range of automotive image sensors often having different power supply voltages and power sequencing requirements. As camera modules are adopted into more vehicles, system designers require more scalable designs for a faster time-to-market. The TPS65033000-Q1 camera PMIC enables support for many different vision applications and image sensors through programmable Non-Volatile Memory (NVM). With the appropriate design implementations, the PMIC can be reprogrammed to the required configuration during the mass production flow with an external I2C controller or the Serializer-Deserializer (SerDes) back-channel. Simple changes to the production programming I2C sequence allows PMIC re-use for many different image sensors.

The use of camera modules for automotive Advanced Driver Assistance (ADAS) applications continue to increase due to the proliferation of rear-view, surround-view, autonomous driving, driver monitoring, and mirror replacement features in modern vehicles. System designers must develop scalable, reusable camera platforms to keep up with the demand. TI's latest family of automotive camera PMICs is designed to enable design scalability.
