SAN JOSE, Calif. – February 28, 2024 – AVIVA Links, Inc. announced the launch of multi-Gigabit asymmetrical Ethernet devices based on the Automotive SerDes Alliance Motion Link Ethernet (ASA-MLE) draft specification. These devices, known as AVIVA AXP410xU and PS480xU, are specifically designed to support high-speed data transmissions between different vehicle domains, such as the central domain controller and the driver assistance system.
The new products include Ethernet PHYs, Switches, CSI-2 bridge ICs and Zonal Aggregators, all of which are optimized for the ultra-high bandwidth asymmetric video and control links. These devices are designed as coherent components of critical infrastructure for the next generation of intelligent Software Defined Vehicles (SDVs).
AVIVA will showcase its robust portfolio of multi-Gigabit asymmetrical Ethernet devices at Automotive Ethernet Congress (AEC) in booth C7. Moreover, the event is taking place in Munich, Germany from March 6-7, 2024.
The automotive industry is rapidly moving from legacy domain controller-based architecture to centralized compute architecture. Moreover, this transition is accompanied by a shift from point-to-point (P2P) topologies to zonal topologies, which dramatically improve the wiring harness. AVIVA’s family of asymmetrical Ethernet devices enable significant reduction in complexity, weight (several kilograms) and cost of the wiring harnesses, while delivering new features such as time-stamp based precise synchronization, ultra-low latency, low power consumption and state-of-the-art security.
“AVIVA introduced the world’s first 16G standardized SerDes which set the bar for the industry last year. Moreover, with this announcement of the world’s first asymmetrical Ethernet solutions. We have extended our technology leadership even further,” said Kamal Dalmia, CEO and co-founder at AVIVA. “These new products will allow our customers to achieve unprecedented levels of performance, cost and architectural advantages.”
