Mixel IP Integrated Into indie's Automotive Radar And MMIC Products, Supporting Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems

Mixel®, Inc. ("Mixel"), a part of Silvaco Group, Inc. ("Silvaco") (NASDAQ:SVCO), and indie (NASDAQ:INDI), an automotive solutions innovator, announced Mixel's MIPI® IP has been successfully integrated into indie's automotive radar processor and monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) products. Mixel was recently acquired by Silvaco, a provider of TCAD, EDA software, and silicon IP solutions that enable semiconductor design and digital twin modeling through AI software and innovation.

With the increased adoption of advanced driver-assistance and automated technologies, vehicles are incorporating more radar sensors than ever before. High-frequency radar is becoming a cornerstone technology for enabling advanced driver assistance and safety features across all vehicle segments. indie's portfolio of custom front-end modules and MMICs is designed for automotive applications, supporting everything from front-looking and corner radar to collision detection, automated emergency braking (AEB), and in-cabin occupant monitoring (DMS/OMS).

Mixel provided indie with its ASIL-B compliant MIPI D-PHYTM CSI-2® TX and MIPI D-PHY CSI-2 RX IPs together with certified automotive functional safety deliverables and safety manual. Mixel's IPs were designed to support AEC-Q100 Automotive Grade 1. Mixel also successfully completed full characterization of its IP as part of indie's solution, based on the MIPI Alliance's D-PHY Conformance Test Suite (CTS) and provided a complete characterization report to indie.
