Modular Camera Connection Solutions for Automotive Applications

0

Rosenberger Hochfrequenztechnik is introducing a new modular camera connection solution designed for automotive applications such as Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), driver monitoring and autonomous driving. These solutions offer high data transmission rates, flexible integration options and EMC shielding.

High-performance coaxial interfaces

Rosenberger’s new connection solutions are based on FAKRA, HFM® and RMC® coaxial interfaces, which cover frequency ranges DC up to 12 GHz. These interfaces are suited to automotive camera systems, such as front, rear and surround view cameras. They offer an impedance of 50 Ω and can withstand at least 10 mating cycles. Depending on the technical requirements, variants with or without tolerance compensation are available. Tolerance compensation of up to 0.5 mm in the X, Y, and Z directions, as well as a maximum tilt angle of 1.5°, is possible.

Modular design for maximum flexibility

A key feature of the camera connection solutions is the modular connector system, which allows for integration into high-density electronic environments. With customer-specific housing variants made of metal or plastic, as well as pigtail configurations, the components can be tailored to individual requirements. Rosenberger also provides design recommendations and optimised SMD footprints for integration on PCBs with varying substrate thicknesses.

Space-saving solutions for interior applications

Rosenberger’s customised “DirectLink” pigtails or wire-to-board solutions are advantageous in driver monitoring systems, which are often installed in tight spaces, such as behind rear-view mirrors or in the headliner. Their compact design enables space-efficient integration without compromising signal quality or electromagnetic compatibility.
