RENAN™
Automotive RADAR Software Development Kit
A single board with 12 Tx channels, 16 Rx channels commissioned by NXP®
The RENAN™ platform, powered by the high-performance NXP® 77GHz RADAR solution with the S32R45 Application Processors and TEF8232 fully integrated RF Transceivers, offers a foundation for the commercialization of RADAR products. Successful development requires a comprehensive understanding and expertise across multiple disciplines, such as antenna design, algorithm development, antenna calibration, BSP optimization leveraging S32R45's hardware acceleration, proficient digital and power design, meticulous board routing, and more. Utilizing the RENAN™ platform enables developers to test and verify development stages, thereby reducing the overall time required to deliver a finished product.
