In-Vehicle Networking for Transforming the Next Generation of Vehicle Architecture (NXP)

Presenters: Weibo Qiu & Ajay Kotian

Discover how next-generation in-vehicle networking technologies are paving the way for faster, safer, and more secure communication in tomorrow's software-defined vehicles. Our comprehensive vehicle networking portfolio, from LIN and CAN to FlexRay and Ethernet switches/PHYs, is designed to enhance existing networks and meet the demands of high-performance applications.

In this session, we’ll explore how these innovations are enabling the evolution of vehicle architectures and how we are driving the transformation within the transportation industry.

October 8th, 2024 – 11:30 AM - 12:20 PM CEST

Automotive Connectivity Solutions (Renesas)

Presenter: Edel Griffith

Explore solutions for BLE and NFC applications in the automotive industry, leveraging Renesas' extensive product portfolio. This session will provide an in-depth look at targeted applications, with a focus on infotainment systems and centre console projects.

October 8th, 2024 – 3:00 PM - 3:50 PM CEST

Advancing Transportation Connectivity: Single Pair Ethernet and Microchip's Type B 1000BASE-T1 PHY Solutions (Microchip)

Presenter: Mike Jones

The introduction of Single Pair Ethernet (SPE), led by automotive manufacturers, has brought significant reductions in weight, cost, and wiring complexity—benefits that extend across the broader transportation and mobility sectors. However, varying application requirements, particularly the need for longer reach cabling, must be addressed beyond the passenger vehicle market.

This presentation will provide an overview of SPE technology, its markets, and applications. We will highlight Microchip's SPE solutions, focusing on the 'Type B' longer reach 1000BASE-T1 PHY Transceiver, along with its interoperability and compliance.

October 9th, 2024 – 10:35 AM - 11:25 AM CEST

High Performance Products for V2X & TCU Application (Renesas)

Presenter: Edel Griffith

Explore the evolution of centralised E/E architecture and the solutions for implementing zone and domain architectures. This session will delve into the definition of TCU (Telematics Control Unit) and the expanded functionalities of V2X communication, with a focus on the Renesas RH850 product family.

October 9th, 2024 – 11:30 AM - 12:20 PM CEST

The Role of CAN, LIN and 10BASE-T1S in the Move Towards Full Software-Defined Vehicles (onsemi)

Presenter: Jon Harper

The rapid expansion of software-defined vehicle systems is driving major shifts in automotive networking architecture. This session will begin with a review of practical applications of CAN in front lighting systems and LIN in door controller systems.

We will then explore how Single Pair Ethernet (10BASE-T1S) solutions are integrating automotive electronic control units (ECUs) into the vehicle’s Automotive Ethernet network, allowing an increasing number of ECUs to become integral to the software-defined vehicle infrastructure.
