SiRFatlasV™
For Automotive, PNDs and Telematics
Description
Delivering the next step in the evolution of our mainstream navigation product, SiRFatlasV brings even greater functionality on chip and delivers faster fixes and higher performance than ever before while reducing overall power consumption, system cost and size.
When combined with CSR Synergy, this processor can be seamlessly integrated with CSR's Audio and Connectivity Platforms, allowing customers to design even greater variety into their consumer navigation devices.
Key features
- High-performance GPS and Galileo location engine
- Integrated power management unit
- 500 or 664 MHz high-speed ARM11 CPU with vector floating point unit
- DDR2, Mobile DDR, SD/MMC/MMC+ and NAND flash memory controllers
- Audio DAC; LCD touch panel controller and video post processing accelerator
- Supports QVGA H.264 mobile digital TV content and VGA MPEG4 video playback
- Advanced memory controller supports 166 MHz clock Mobile-DDR and 200 MHz clock DDR2
- Embedded hardware for colour space conversion, deinterlace and scaler
Benefits
- In addition to power and cost savings, the SiRFAlwaysFix technology employs proprietary power management and orbital (ephemeris) prediction algorithms to achieve significantly faster times to first fix by always keeping the SiRFatlasV in a hot-start condition without the GPS receiver having to be at full power
- SiRFAlwaysFix employs CSR’s new SiRFHibernation™ technology, which is able to completely cut off DRAM power when the system enters standby mode
- With the new, faster 664 MHz core speed, the SiRFatlasV is capable of handling heavier application loading when performing routing calculations, displaying pseudo-3D graphics, multimedia playback, and other processor-intensive functions
- New support for DDR2-400 memory, the most popular memory technology in use today, means manufacturers can now use the low-cost commodity memory chips in their designs. Similarly, the new 8-bit NAND flash memory controller interface with 12/24-bit configurable BCH HW ECC support allows the use of less expensive 3x-nm raw multilevel- cell (MLC) NAND flash memory chips, reducing BOM cost
- The new, on-chip audio DAC and power management unit eliminate the need for external components, reducing overall power consumption and BOM costs, simplifying design and shrinking PC board size
