TI unlocks mmWave technology for worldwide industrial market through new 60-GHz sensor portfolio

Highest-resolution single-chip mmWave sensors enable intelligent autonomy at the edge

DALLAS, Nov. 7, 2018 — (PRNewswire) —  To advance millimeter-wave (mmWave) sensor technology in worldwide industrial applications, Texas Instruments (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) today announced its 60-GHz sensor portfolio, the highest resolution single-chip, complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS), for industrial systems. IWR6x mmWave sensors enable industrial automation through on-chip processing capabilities, providing real-time decision-making and signal processing. The newest 60-GHz mmWave sensors will be the first to include antenna-on-package offerings, which remove traditional challenges associated with radio-frequency (RF) design while shrinking size up to 75% and reducing overall cost.

Highest-resolution single-chip mmWave sensors from TI enable intelligent autonomy at the edge

With 60-GHz mmWave sensors, engineers worldwide can integrate mmWave technology into a vast range of robotics, factory automation and building automation designs while leveraging the ISM band for broad deployment. Built for industrial performance, high resolution IWR6x sensors provide up to 4 GHz of ultra-wide bandwidth to detect objects and motion up to 16 times more accurately than 24-GHz narrowband solutions.
