Indie Semiconductor Expands Quantum Portfolio With First UV DFB Laser Source At 399 Nm Wavelength Indie Semiconductor has released its first Ultraviolet (UV) Visible Distributed Feedback (DFB) 399 nm single-frequency laser diode optimized for quantum computing systems based on cooled Ytterbium atoms. With the addition of this new device in the UV spectrum, indie is expanding on its previously announced LXM-U and narrow-linewidth visible DFB lasers, furthering capabilities and strengthening photonics portfolio, which is enabling advanced quantum technologies. Photonics division continues to gain momentum as part of strategic expansion into adjacent markets outside automotive, including quantum and humanoids, as demonstrated by increasing customer traction and expanding product portfolio. Photonics plays a foundational role in emerging quantum technologies primed to reshape multiple markets in the coming decade — from secure communications and advanced sensing to computing platforms that accelerate discovery and decision-making. Quantum computers based upon cold-atom and trapped-ion architectures require multiple lasers for cooling, trapping, pumping and entanglement operations. To advance these platforms, there is a need for compact, cost-effective semiconductor laser sources, which are tailored to specific atom or ion transitions, especially in the visible and UV spectral range. The ELA350028 is the Company’s first commercially available DFB semiconductor laser source in the UV spectral range with narrow-linewidth output at 398.9 nm, engineered to specifically address the Ytterbium transition for atom cooling, while delivering the stability, compactness, and scalability required for next-generation quantum systems. The device provides a single spatial mode (TEM00) and stable single-frequency output with optical power levels up to 30 mW in a TO-56 package. Higher output power levels of a few 100 mW could be realized with a DFB-MOPA architecture featuring a monolithically integrated amplifier section. Building on indie’s visible DFB architecture, the laser operates in a single longitudinal mode with sub-MHz linewidth, eliminating the need for external cavity gratings or frequency-doubling schemes traditionally used to reach this wavelength. The design also achieves high side-mode suppression and low-noise operation, key requirements for precision quantum experiments and scalable computing platforms. It offers inherent mode-hop-free performance across a wide current and temperature range. Indie Semiconductor is currently sampling ELA350028 with customers. Announcement • Feb 20

indie Semiconductor, Inc. Introduces Computer Vision Processor Family indie Semiconductor, Inc. announced the addition of a highly innovative iND880xx product line to its fast-growing vision processor portfolio, developed to address the demanding specifications of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and driver viewing use cases, such as Surround View systems and Electronic Mirrors. This latest family of processors further enhances indie’s comprehensive suite of sensing solutions for computer vision, LiDAR, radar, and ultrasound, and underpins indie’s leadership as the only automotive company to offer a dynamic portfolio spanning all edge-sensing modalities. Vision-based sensing has rapidly become a critical sensor modality for ADAS, driven by government regulation, new car acceptance programs (NCAP), and improved consumer awareness of vehicle safety. Key safety applications enabled by vision sensing include automated emergency braking (AEB), lane keep assist (LKA), blind spot detection (BSD), driver and occupant monitoring (DMS/OMS), smart back-up, and vulnerable road user (VRU) protection. In fact, the need for improved VRU protection - which aims to safeguard pedestrians in particular - was recently bolstered by the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) AEB regulation FMV127. This progressive regulation includes testing requirements for pedestrian AEB (PAEB), including low-light and nighttime testing, placing stringent requirements on vision processor performance. The iND880xx video processor system-on-chip (SoC) family sets new benchmarks in image signal processing (ISP) performance and functionality for both viewing and sensing applications. Balancing the competing needs of low light sensor performance (luminance) and the ability to differentiate colors (chrominance) for high-performance perception (for example, to accurately differentiate red and amber traffic lights) has been an ongoing challenge for legacy vision processors. High latency initialization and pipeline processing has also limited legacy ADAS camera system real-time safety capabilities. The iND880xx family addresses these unique challenges through the product’s proprietary ISP pipeline ability to support concurrent, low-latency processing of four independent sensor inputs, delivering a combined maximum throughput of 1400 megapixels per second. Additionally, proprietary ISP features include a 24-bit processing pipeline that enables high dynamic range (HDR) processing up to 144dB, with dedicated support for the broadest range of sensor color filter arrays (CFAs), including RGGB, RCCB, RYYCy, and RGB-IR, facilitating the highest performance environmental perception even in low light conditions. Further, the ISP supports eWarp®, indie’s proprietary high-performance geometric processing, to dewarp image distortion from a wide field of view lens. These class-leading ISP capabilities allow automakers the scalability to deploy multiple instances of the iND880xx into various high-performance viewing and ADAS sensing use cases across their entire vehicle portfolio. The iND880xx family is sampling with select lead customers and will be in serial production deployment in 2025. The iND880xx solution will be showcased at the upcoming AutoSens Europe 2024 in Barcelona, Spain, October 8-10. Announcement • Jun 05

indie Semiconductor Launches Breakthrough Computer Vision Processor indie Semiconductor has expanded its automotive camera video processor portfolio with the commercial release of iND87540, a highly integrated system-on-chip (SoC) that enables viewing and sensing capability at the vehicle’s edge. As government regulators, new car safety assessors and consumers demand higher performance driver and road user safety features, automakers are increasingly seeking camera-based Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) solutions that enable volume scalability, across their vehicle classes. This demands a ‘distributed intelligence’ architectural approach to vision sensing, and high levels of integration coupled with low power consumption to meet the needs of mass market deployments. indie’s iND87540 was developed to address these challenging design requirements. iND87540 is also a preferred solution by end customers as a pre-processor for powerful central compute and provides real-time image processing for optimal detection performance. Integrating real-time, on-chip image signal processing (ISP), digital signal processing (DSP) and customized hardware, the iND87540 enables viewing and sensing capabilities within the stringent power, latency and compact form factor needed for scalable vision architectures. The SoC provides computer vision processing that can run a range of algorithms, enabling ADAS functions including pedestrian detection, object detection, blind spot detection, cross traffic alerts as well as driver and occupant monitoring (DMS/OMS). indie complements this class-leading SoC hardware with value-add proprietary high-performance embedded algorithms such as auto calibration (AutoCAL®) and dirty lens detection. According to S&P Global, shipments of automotive electronic control units (ECUs) incorporating vision-based processing are expected to grow from 232 million units in 2022, to nearly 400 million units by 2027. The iND87540 has been developed to ISO 26262 ASIL-B requirements, is AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualified and hosts the AutoSAR software stack. The SoC is available now for vehicle integration and is currently in advanced development with select Tier 1 customers. Board Change • Oct 10
