The TDA4VEN/TDA4AEN (aka, TDA4-Entry) processor family is an extension of the Jacinto™ 7 automotive-grade family of heterogeneous Arm® processors targeted at Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) applications. With embedded Deep Learning (DL), Video, Vision Processing, and 3D Graphics acceleration, display interface and extensive automotive peripheral and networking options, TDA4VEN/TDA4AEN is built for a set of cost and power sensitive automotive applications such as NCAP front camera or entry-level park assistance systems. The cost optimized TDA4VEN/TDA4AEN provides an optimized performance compute for both traditional and deep learning algorithms at industry leading power/performance ratios with a high level of system integration to enable scalability and lower costs for advanced automotive platforms supporting multiple sensor modalities in stand-alone Electronic Control Units (ECUs).
TDA4VEN/TDA4AEN contains up to four Arm® Cortex®-A53 cores with 64-bit architecture, a Vision Processing Accelerator (VPAC) with Image Signal Processor (ISP) and multiple vision assist accelerators, Deep Learning (DL), Dense Optical Flow (DOF) video and 3D Graphics accelerators, a Cortex®-R5F MCU Island core and two Cortex®-R5F cores for Device and Run-time Management. The Cortex-A53s provide the powerful computing elements necessary for Linux applications as well as the implementation of traditional vision computing based algorithms. Building on the existing world-class ISP, TI’s 7th generation ISP includes flexibility to process a broader sensor suite including RGB-InfraRed (RGB-IR), support for higher bit depth, and features targeting analytics applications. Key cores include TI’s Dense Optical Flow (DOF) accelerator as well two “C7x” next generation DSP with scalar and vector cores, dedicated “MMA” deep learning accelerator combined with a large 2.25MB L2 memory enabling performance up to 4 TOPS within the lowest power envelope in the industry when operating at the typical automotive worst case junction temperature of 125°C.
TDA4VEN/TDA4AEN integrates high-speed IOs including a PCIe Gen-3 (1L) and 3-port Gigabit Ethernet switch with one internal port and two external ports with TSN support. In addition, an extensive peripherals set is included in TDA4VEN/TDA4AEN to enable system level connectivity such as USB, MMC/SD, four CSI2.0 Camera interface, OSPI, CAN-FD and GPMC for parallel host interface to an external ASIC/FPGA. TDA4VEN/TDA4AEN supports secure boot for IP protection with the built-in HSM (Hardware Security Module) and employs advanced power management support for power-sensitive applications. Integrated diagnostics and safety features support operations up to ASIL-B at SoC level, (ASIL-D systematic level).
