ROHM Develops a 1kW Class High Power Infrared Laser Diode

　　ROHM has developed a high output laser diode - RLD8BQAB3 - for use in ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) equipped with LiDAR for distance measurement and spatial recognition. ROHM will initially start supplying samples targeting consumer and industrial applications such as drones, robot vacuum cleaners, AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles), and service robots.　　LiDAR is seeing growing adoption in recent years across a variety of applications that require automation such as automotive ADAS, AGVs, drones, and robot vacuums, facilitating precise distance measurement and spatial recognition. To detect information at greater distances with more accuracy, there is a need for laser diodes that serve as light sources to achieve high kW-level output while allowing multiple light sources to emit light at close intervals.　　ROHM has established proprietary patented technology that achieves the narrow emission width of lasers, enhancing the long-distance, high accuracy LiDAR, beginning with the commercialization of the 25W output RLD90QZW5 in 2019 and high-power 120W RLD90QZW8 in 2023. Building on these successes, we have developed a new 125W 8ch (1kW class) array-type product that meets the demand for a high output, high performance laser diode.　　The RLD8BQAB3 is an ultra-compact surface mount high-output 125W × 8ch infrared laser diode for LiDAR applications that utilize 3D ToF systems to carry out distance measurement and spatial recognition. The optimized design features 8 emission areas (each 300µm wide) per element, installed on a submount affixed to a high heat dissipation substrate.　　The package’s emitting surface incorporates a clear glass cap - an industry first for a surface mount laser diode - eliminating the risk of light scattering caused by scratches during dicing that tends to occur with resin-encapsulated products, ensuring high beam quality. Each emission area is wired with a common cathode, enabling the selection of the irradiation method based on application needs - ranging from individual emission that increases the number of light-emitting points to industry-leading* simultaneous emission at ultra-high outputs of 1kW class.　　The new product retains the key features of ROHM’s conventional laser diodes, including uniform emission intensity across the emission width along with a low wavelength temperature dependence of 0.1nm/°C (vs 0.26 to 0.28nm/°C for standard products). On top, the array configuration narrows the regions of reduced emission intensity between channels, while the bandpass filter minimizes the effects of ambient light noise from the sun and other sources, contributing to long-distance detection and high-definition LiDAR.　　Samples are available since August 2024 (please contact a sales representative or visit the contact page on ROHM’s website).　　Application Examples Automotive: ADAS　　Consumer: Drones, robot vacuums, golf rangefinders, and more　　Industrial: AGVs, service robots, 3D monitoring systems (sensors for human/object detection), etc.　　Terminology LiDAR　　Short for Light Detection and Ranging, an application that uses the ToF (Time of Flight) system (comprised of a light source and ToF or image sensor) to sense ambient conditions.　　3D ToF System　　An abbreviation for Time of Flight, a spatial measurement system which, as its name implies, measures the flight time of a light source. Refers to a system that uses ToF to perform 3D spatial recognition and distance measurement.　　Submount　　A small, flat mounting plate made from a material with high thermal conductivity.　　Bandpass Filter　　A filter that allows only signals in a specific light wavelength band to pass through. In optical devices, a narrow bandpass filter range allows for efficient extraction of light close to the peak waveform. This minimizes the effects of ambient noise such as sunlight, enabling lower power consumption at the same distance or longer range at the same optical output.　　IATF 16949　　IATF is the short for International Automotive Task Force, a quality management standard for the automotive industry. Based on the international standard ISO 9001 with additional specific requirements, compliance with IATF 16949 enables automakers and suppliers to meet international quality standards.　　AEC-Q102　　AEC stands for Automotive Electronics Council, an organization (comprised of major automotive manufacturers and US electronic component makers) responsible for establishing reliability standards for automotive electronics. Q102 is a standard specifically intended for optical devices.

ROHM’s New SiC Schottky Barrier Diodes for High Voltage xEV Systems: Featuring a Unique Package Design for Improved Insulation Resistance

　　ROHM has developed surface mount SiC Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) that improve insulation resistance by increasing the creepage distance between terminals. The initial lineup includes eight models - SCS2xxxNHR - for automotive applications such as onboard chargers (OBCs), with plans to deploy eight models - SCS2xxxN - for industrial equipment such as FA devices and PV inverters in December 2024.　　The rapidly expanding xEV market is driving the demand for power semiconductors, among them SiC SBDs, that provide low heat generation along with high-speed switching and high-voltage capabilities in applications such as onboard chargers. Additionally, manufacturers increasingly rely on compact surface mount devices (SMDs) compatible with automated assembly equipment to boost manufacturing efficiency. Compact SMDs tend to typically feature smaller creepage distances, fact that makes high-voltage tracking prevention a critical design challenge.　　As leading SiC supplier, ROHM has been working to develop high-performance SiC SBDs that offer breakdown voltages suitable for high-voltage applications with ease of mounting. Adopting an optimized package shape, it achieves a minimum creepage distance of 5.1mm, improving insulation performance when contrasted with standard products.　　The new products utilize an original design that removes the center pin previously located at the bottom of the package, extending the creepage distance to a minimum of 5.1mm, approx. 1.3 times greater than standard products. This minimizes the possibility of tracking (creepage discharge) between terminals, eliminating the need for insulation treatment through resin potting when surface mounting the device on circuit boards in high voltage applications. Additionally, the devices can be mounted on the same land pattern as standard and conventional TO-263 package products, allowing an easy replacement on existing circuit boards.　　Two voltage ratings are offered, 650V and 1200V, supporting 400V systems commonly used in xEVs as well as higher voltage systems expected to gain wider adoption in the future. The automotive-grade SCS2xxxNHR are AEC-Q101 qualified, ensuring they meet the high reliability standards this application sector demands.　　Going forward, ROHM will continue to develop high-voltage SBDs using SiC, contributing to low energy consumption and high efficiency requirements in automotive and industrial equipment by providing optimal power devices that meet market needs.　　Application Examples◇ Automotive applications: Onboard chargers (OBCs), DC-DC converters, etc.　　◇ Industrial Equipment: AC servo motors for industrial robots, PV inverters, power conditioners, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and more　　Online Sales InformationAvailability: The SCS2xxxxNHR for automotive applications are available now.　　The SCS2xxxN for industrial equipment are scheduled in December 2024.　　Pricing: $10.50/unit (samples, excluding tax)　　Online Distributors: DigiKey™, Mouser™ and Farnell™　　The products will be offered at other online distributors as they become available.　　EcoSiC™ BrandEcoSiC™ is a brand of devices that leverage silicon carbide, which is attracting attention in the power device field for performance that surpasses silicon. ROHM independently develops technologies essential for the advancement of SiC, from wafer fabrication and production processes to packaging, and quality control methods. At the same time, we have established an integrated production system throughout the manufacturing process, solidifying our position as a leading SiC supplier.　　TerminologyCreepage Distance　　The shortest distance between two conductive elements (terminals) along the surface of the device package. In semiconductor design, insulation measures with such creepage and clearance distances must be taken to prevent electric shocks, leakage currents, and short-circuits in semiconductor products.　　Tracking (Creepage Discharge)　　A phenomenon where discharge occurs along the surface of the package (insulator) when high voltage is applied to the conductive terminals. This can create an unintended conductive path between patterns, potentially leading to dielectric breakdown of the device. Package miniaturization increases the risk of tracking by reducing creepage distance.　　Resin Potting　　The process of encapsulating the device body and the electrode connections between the device and circuit with resin, such as epoxy, to provide electrical insulation. This provides durability and weather resistance by protecting against water, dust, and other environmental conditions.　　AEC-Q101 Automotive Reliability Standard　　AEC stands for Automotive Electronics Council, a reliability standard for automotive electronic components established by major automotive manufacturers and US electronic component makers. Q101 is a standard that specifically applies to discrete semiconductor products (i.e. transistors, diodes).

Murata SCH1633-D01 Sets a New Standard for Automotive 6DoF Sensor

　　Murata is expanding its range of innovative Six Degrees-of-Freedom devices with the introduction of the SCH1633-D01. The micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) based sensor moves the benchmark for performance, system integration, and total cost optimization. It is designed for various automotive applications, including autonomous driving (AD), advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), inertial navigation, vehicle stability control, and camera or headlight alignment.　　Market Demands　　With the increasing push for vehicle autonomy and safety, there is an unquestionable demand for extremely accurate sensors with comprehensive built-in safety features and a high level of integration. Likewise, complying with technical regulations like the UNECE’s headlight leveling regulation requires accurate and cost-optimized solutions – something the SCH1633-D01 has demonstrated it can achieve.　　The SCH1633-D01 is a single-package solution optimized for zonal architecture where all required subsystems, like GNSS integration, chassis control, and vehicle attitude sensing (camera and headlight alignment) can utilize its measurements. It is targeted for deployment in the central vehicle inertia measuring unit (IMU) providing a high-quality signal for all subsystems within the vehicle even in the toughest environments. This integration helps to reduce system complexity and provides a much-needed opportunity for cost optimization.　　SCH1633-D01 Features　　SCH1633-D01 is packaged in a unique 24-pin SOIC housing and uses the SafeSPI 2.0 interface with an up to 20-bit data frame for an extremely smooth and high-resolution output. The component supports various system-level time synchronization features, ensuring that the SCH1633-D01’s output can be easily harnessed across the entire vehicle. Furthermore, the extensive self-diagnostics features utilize over 200 monitoring signals to ensure the output is always trustworthy.　　The SCH1633-D01 is designed to provide a high-quality output, even in harsh temperature conditions. It features AEC-Q100 grade 1 qualification to guarantee reliable use throughout the whole component lifetime and is ISO26262 compliant with ASIL-B+ rating (up to ASIL-D via system integration) for exceptional built-in safety.　　For further information on the product’s extensive functionality, please visit its detail page here.　　Murata’s Recent 6DoF MEMS Success　　Murata’s previous generation 6DoF MEMS solution has proven to be highly successful as over 90% of autonomous miles in California alone are driven with the sensor on board. The improvements in this next-generation 6DoF devices are based on customer feedback, and they have already gained global recognition.　　The industrial counterpart SCH16T-K01, launched in January this year, has won the first prize in the Industrial & Manufacturing category of the Sensors Converge fair’s “Best of Sensors Award” competition and the SCH1633-D01 preliminary sample feedback has been remarkably positive.　　A partner of Murata, Hexagon, has been using the SCH1633-D01 in their products. Gordon Heidinger, Segment Manager, Automotive and Safety-Critical Systems at Hexagon’s Autonomy & Positioning division, remarked, “　　The SCH1633-D01 is displaying exceptional performance for a single MEMS sensor. We're pleased to promote this sensor integrated with our positioning solution”.　　Murata has also successfully demonstrated that the UNECE headlight leveling regulation can be fulfilled with the SCH1633-D01 sensor in combination with a commercially available alignment algorithm. This is a significant leap towards cost-effective regulation compliance.　　“Automotive 6DoF applications are rapidly developing, with fierce competition among manufacturers to capture a share of the market. This product offers high performance, demanded by the latest systems, while also providing a much-needed cost-saving opportunity,” said Ville Nurmiainen, General Manager of Product management at Murata Electronics Oy. He continued, “The SCH1633-D01 will give both a technological and cost down advantage to OEMs choosing to utilize the product to its full potential and will help them to further drive automotive applications forward and create safer roads for us all.”　　Preliminary samples are available now. Mass production of this exciting new solution is planned for early 2025.
