On September 16, 2020, leading battery and power management, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), industrial IC supplier Dialog Semiconductor (German Stock Exchange trading code: DLG) and for in-vehicle infotainment systems ( IVI) and Telechips, a leading automotive system-on-chip (SoC) supplier of smart cockpit solutions, announced today that Dialog will be the preferred power management partner of Telechips for its latest Dolphin+QD (TCC8059) and Dolphin 3E (TCC8053) / Platforms such as Dolphin 3M (TCC8050) and Dolphin 3H (TCC8060) provide power management solutions. This further cooperation is based on the previous cooperation between the two companies on the Telechips Dolphin+ automotive platform, and aims at the next generation of functionally safe intelligent in-vehicle infotainment systems, instruments, head-up display systems and integrated cockpit electronic control units (ECU).

Dialog's "perfectly matched" power solution consists of the main PMIC of the DA9062-A system and the recently launched DA9130-A and DA9131-A sub PMICs. These highly integrated devices are certified by AEC-Q100 Grade 2 and provide a total current capability of 21.5A, helping the latest Telechips platform to achieve optimal performance. In addition, Dolphin 3 uses dynamic voltage regulation (DVS) to reduce SoC power loss and heat dissipation. Dialog's power solutions can easily support this feature, as well as other energy-saving features such as programmable sleep modes.

Tom Sandoval, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Automotive Business Unit of Dialog Semiconductor, said: "As automotive electronics suppliers continue to demand cost-effective, high-performance, feature-rich SoC platforms, our further cooperation with Telechips will provide automotive electronics suppliers Brings great advantages. Dialog’s PMIC solutions have unique advantages that provide the flexibility, scalability, and automotive-grade reliability that Telechips’ customers require."

The biggest advantage of the new Dolphin series products is to provide cockpit electronic systems that do not require hardware virtualization, allowing customers to use two operating systems based on Cortex®-A72 and Cortex®-A53 CPUs at the same time without using hardware virtualization. Dolphin 3 not only has high GPU benchmark performance, but also has excellent VPU. Automobile customers can use DP1.4, Open LDI, MIPI-CSI2 to experience rich and vivid graphical user interfaces, and can realize image display on multiple screens and image processing on multiple cameras. In addition, the Telechips Dolphin 3 solution can run automotive-grade operating systems such as Android™, Linux®, QNX™ and Green Hills®. The Dolphin series platform also meets the complete EVITA, Chinese encryption, AEC-Q100 and ASIL B functional safety requirements.

Telechips CEO Steve Wahl said: "Our customers require a variety of solutions, from entry-level to high-end series. We are fortunate to be supported by Dialog's flexible and scalable power supply solutions. Telechips provides a differentiated networked car platform. Combined with Dialog's PMIC series, it can support multiple cost and performance levels."

DA9062-A system main PMIC, DA9130-A sub-PMIC and DA9131-A sub-PMIC provide significant scalability and flexibility advantages while distributing heat dissipation in high temperature environments. The built-in configurable engine helps system design engineers easily solve power supply timing, heat dissipation and system control challenges. The intuitive GUI (Smart Canvas) simplifies the customization process to achieve a "perfectly matched" power management solution. This highly optimized and cost-effective power management solution helps to achieve the most competitive and differentiated system design.

The main PMIC and sub-PMIC devices of these systems have all passed AEC-Q100 Grade 2 certification.
