How BAW Clocks Redefine ADAS and IVI Systems (Download)
July 2, 2025
Just like Goldilocks, the market for advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and in-vehicle infotainment (IVI products) knows when something is just right. And when it comes to getting it right, it’s hard to argue against bulk-acoustic-wave (BAW) clocks in applications requiring timing and reliable clocking circuits.
BAW is a resonator technology that uses piezoelectric transduction to generate a gigahertz frequency and high-Q resonance that can be integrated directly into standard plastic packages. A high Q value indicates low damping and energy loss at a lower rate.
