On April 14th, Samsung Electronics recently released the world's first in car ultra wideband (UWB) chip, Exynos Auto UA100, marking a new era in automotive connectivity technology.

This innovative chip integrates RF, baseband, storage, and power management, using 28nm automotive grade technology and advanced FCFBGA packaging technology. It not only significantly reduces system costs, but also redefines automotive connectivity standards with excellent energy efficiency performance.

The core advantage of Exynos Auto UA100 lies in its centimeter level ranging capability. Through innovative time-of-flight (ToF) and angle of arrival (AoA) measurement technologies, combined with 2-nanosecond ultra short pulse signals, sub meter level positioning accuracy can be achieved even in complex parking lot environments. More noteworthy is that the chip integrates scrambling timestamp sequence (STS) technology and multiple secure IP protections, building a robust defense against hacker attacks.

This chip will completely change the way people interact with cars, "said a Samsung spokesperson." From smart keys to vehicle positioning, UA100 provides an ideal solution for car manufacturers to create seamless connected experiences. Its low-power architecture and highly integrated design are particularly suitable for in vehicle applications that require strict space and energy efficiency requirements.
