Texas Instruments (TI) today announced the expansion of its automotive portfolio at CES 2026, unveiling new analog and embedded processing technologies designed to help automakers deliver smarter, safer, and more connected driving experiences across every vehicle model.
TI’s latest innovations bring together high-performance computing, advanced radar, and unified networking to accelerate the industry’s shift toward autonomous mobility and software-defined vehicles (SDVs).
Key Features of TI’s Expanded Portfolio
Key Features of TI’s Expanded Portfolio- Next‑Gen Compute TI’s new TDA5 high‑performance system-on-a-chip (SoC) family delivers edge AI performance up to 1200 TOPS with a proprietary neural processing unit (NPU) and chiplet-ready design. This scalability enables automakers to centralize computing architectures and support advanced AI models for up to SAE Level 3 autonomy.
- Smarter Radar The single‑chip 8×8 4D imaging radar transceiver simplifies high-resolution radar designs, eliminating cascading requirements and unlocking advanced detection use cases. With enhanced perception capabilities, it enables earlier and more accurate detection in diverse driving conditions.
- Unified Networking TI’s 10BASE‑T1S Ethernet PHY extends Ethernet to vehicle edge nodes, reducing wiring complexity and cost while enabling real-time data transmission across vehicle zones. This unified network architecture supports the evolution toward software-defined vehicles.
- Autonomy at Scale Together, these semiconductors enable faster AI decisions, comprehensive perception, and seamless communication—helping automakers bring higher levels of autonomy across entire fleets.
Driving the Future of Mobility
“Semiconductors are at the heart of bringing safer, smarter, and more autonomous driving experiences to every vehicle,” said Mark Ng, Director of Automotive Systems at TI. “From detection and communication to decision-making, TI’s end-to-end system offering empowers engineers to innovate what’s next in automotive.”
TI’s expanded portfolio underscores its commitment to advancing ADAS, SDVs, and autonomous driving technologies, enabling automakers to deliver vehicles that are not only more intelligent but also more efficient and reliable.
