The Perception Connection

Cepton, Micro-Motion and Seeing is Believing

Hello LiDAR, my old friend. I’ve come to sense with you again. This week’s Fish Fry is all about the what, where, and how of LiDAR technology. Jun Pei (CEO – Cepton Technologies) joins us to discuss the details of Cepton’s Micro-Motion platform and how perception is key to the advancement of autonomous vehicle technology. Also this we check out how a new Kickstarter campaign may change our perception of inductive charging…one cleverly hidden wire at a time.

An Automated Method for Adding Resiliency to Mission-Critical SoC Designs

Sponsored by Synopsys

Adding safety measures to SoC designs in the form of radiation-hardened elements or redundancy is essential in making mission-critical applications in the A&D, cloud, automotive, robotics, medical, and IoT industries more resilient against random hardware failures that occur. This paper discusses the automated process of implementing the safety mechanisms/measures (SM) in the design to make them more resilient and analyze their effectiveness from design inception to the final product.

Solving Design Challenges Using TI's Code Free Sensorless BLDC Motor Drivers
Designing systems with Brushless DC motors can present us with a variety of difficult design challenges including motor deceleration, reliable motor startup and hardware complexity. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Vishnu Balaraj from Texas Instruments and Amelia Dalton investigate two new solutions for BLDC motor design that are code free, sensorless and easy to use. They review the features of the MCF8316A and MCT8316A motor drivers and examine how each of these solutions can make your next BLDC design easier than ever before.
