Cadence Showcases World's First 128GT/s PCIe 7.0 IP Over Optics

PCI-SIG DevCon 2024 was a great success for Cadence. We posted the blog, Cadence Demonstrates Complete PCIe 7.0 Solution at PCI-SIG DevCon ‘24 a day before the event to advertise our IP solutions for PCIe 7.0, which resulted in a lot of extra traffic at our booth. All of the attendees were excited to see Cadence demonstrate the robustness of 128GT/s PCIe 7.0 IP's TX and RX capabilities over a real-world, low-latency, non-retimed, linear optics connector. We achieved and maintained a consistent, impressive pre-FEC BER of ~3E-8 (PCIe spec requires 1E-6) for the entire duration of the event, spanning over two full days with no breaks. This provides an ample margin for RS FEC. As seen in the picture below, the receiver Eye PAM4 histograms have good linearity and margin. This is the world’s first stable demonstration of 128 GT/s TX and RX over off-the-shelf optical connectors—by far the main attraction of DevCon this year.

In summary, Cadence had a dominating presence on the demo floor with a record number of PCIe demos:

  • PCIe 7.0 over optics
  • PCIe 7.0 electrical
  • PCIe 6.0 RP/EP interop back-to back
  • PCIe 6.0 protocol in FLIT mode with Lecroy Exerciser (at Cadence booth)
  • PCIe 6.0 protocol in FLIT mode (at the Lecroy booth)
  • PCIe 6.0 JTOL with Anritsu and Tektronix equipment (at Tektronix booth)
  • PCIe 6.0 protocol with Viavi Protocol Analyzer (at Viavi booth)
  • PCIe 6.0 System Level Interop Demo with Gen5 platform (at SerialTek booth)

The Cadence team and its partners did a great job in coordinating and setting up the demos that worked flawlessly. This was the culmination of many weeks of hard work and dedication. Four different vendors featured our IP for PCIe 6.0. They attracted a lot of attention and drove traffic back to us.

How Cadence Is Revolutionizing Automotive Sensor Fusion

The automotive industry is currently on the cusp of a radical evolution, steering towards a future where cars are not just vehicles but sophisticated, software-defined vehicles (SDV). This shift is marked by an increased reliance on automation and a significant increase in the use of sensors to improve safety and reliability. However, the increasing number of sensors has led to higher compute demands and poses challenges in managing a wide variety of data. The traditional method of using separate processors to manage each sensor's data is becoming obsolete. The current trends necessitate a unified processing system that can deal with multimodal sensor data, utilizing traditional Digital Signal Processing (DSP) and AI-driven algorithms. This approach allows for more efficient and reliable sensor fusion, significantly enhancing vehicle perception. Developers often face difficulties adhering to stringent power, performance, area, and cost (PPAC) and timing constraints while designing automotive SoCs.

Cadence, with its groundbreaking products and AI-powered processors, is enabling designers and automotive manufacturers to meet the future sensor fusion demands within the automotive sector. At the recent CadenceLive Silicon Valley 2024, Amol Borkar, product marketing director at Cadence, showcased the company's dedication and forward-thinking solutions in a captivating presentation titled "Addressing Tomorrow’s Sensor Fusion Needs in Automotive Computing with Cadence." This blog aims to encapsulate the pivotal takeaways from the presentation. If you missed the chance to watch this presentation live, please click here to watch it.

Significant Trends in the Automotive Market – Industry Landscape

We are witnessing a revolution in automotive technology. Innovations like occupant and driver monitoring systems (OMS, DMS), 4D radar imaging, LiDAR technology, and 360-degree view are pushing the boundaries of what's possible, leading us into an era of remarkable autonomy levels—ranging from no feet or hands required to eventually no eyes needed on the road.

Sensor Fusion and Increasing Processing Demands—Sensor fusion effectively integrates data from different sensors to help vehicles understand their surroundings better. Its main benefit is in overcoming the limitations of individual sensors. For example, cameras provide detailed visual information but struggle in low-light or lousy weather. On the other hand, radar is excellent at detecting objects in these conditions but lacks the detail that cameras provide. By combining the data from multiple sensors, automotive computing can take advantage of their strengths while compensating for their weaknesses, resulting in a more reliable and robust system overall.

 

One thing to note is that the increased number of sensors produces various data types, leading to more pre-processing.

On-Device Processing—As the industry moves towards autonomy, there is an increasing need for on-device data processing instead of cloud computing to enable vehicles to make informed decisions. Embracing on-device processing is a significant advancement for facilitating real-time decisions and avoiding round-trip latency.

AI Adoption—AI has become integral to automotive applications, driving safety, efficiency, and user experience advancements. AI models offer superior performance and adaptability, making future-proofing a crucial consideration for automotive manufacturers. AI significantly enhances sensor fusion algorithms, offering scalability and adaptability beyond traditional rule-based approaches. Neural networks enable various fusion techniques, such as early fusion, late fusion, and mid-fusion, to optimize the integration and processing of sensor data.

Future Sensor Fusion Needs

Automotive architectures are continually evolving. With current trends and AI integration into radar and sensor fusion applications, SoCs should be modular, flexible, and programmable to meet market demands.

Heterogeneous Architecture- Today's vehicles are loaded with various sensors, each with a unique processing requirement. Running the application on the most suitable processor is essential to achieve the best PPA. To meet such requirements, modern automotive solutions require a heterogeneous compute approach, integrating domain-specific digital signal processors (DSPs), neural processing units (NPUs), central processing unit (CPU) clusters, graphics processing unit (GPU) clusters, and hardware accelerator blocks. A balanced heterogeneous architecture gives the best PPA solution.

Flexibility and Programmability- The industry has come a long way from using computer vision algorithms such as HOG (Histogram Oriented Gradient) to detect people and objects, HAR classifier to detect faces, etc., to CNN and LSTM-based AI to Transformer models and graphical neural networks (GNN). AI has evolved tremendously over the last ten years and continues to evolve. To keep up with the evolving rate of AI, SoC design must be flexible and programmable for updates if needed in the future.
