Parade Tech Unveils Tcon Touch Drivers for Car Displays

Parade Technologies, Ltd, introduced the TC1312V device, its first fully integrated AEC-Q100 qualified touch with Tcon embedded drivers targeting automotive cockpit displays. The TC1312V combines Parade’s broad portfolio of patented touchscreen technology and proven in-cell, display processing and high-speed signal technology, to provide the lowest EMI and lowest latency touch experience for automotive displays.

The TC1312V leverages Parade’s TrueTouch™ patented technology portfolio and design experience gained from shipping over 1 billion touch devices. It provides superior EMI suppression, low power, low latency and flawless touch experience across the temperature extremes of the automotive cabin. The TC1312V also provides accurate touch response for a wide range of finger sizes and gloved touches across various materials and thicknesses. Using Active Shielding technology, TC1312V can deliver best-in-class water rejection and wet finger tracking, perfect for reliable touch with surface condensation or even stepping in from the rain.

In addition, the TC1312V offers the industry’s only true VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) solution for automotive displays. Touch refresh rate is fully independent from the display refresh rate, giving automotive system designers more options to reduce display power, while keeping the touchscreen highly responsive to user inputs. Multiple TC1312V chips can be cascaded together to support 35” displays with a maximum display resolution of 7680*1260. On-board circuitry supports single-chip TPMUX on glass to offer flexibility in providing excellent touch performance for displays up to 15.6”. The TC1312V paired with Parade’s PS8627V bridge provides a complete display module solution that addresses the protocol conversion (DP/eDP to LVDS), functional safety and display needs of automotive system designs.

The TC1312V chip-on-glass (COG) device is compatible with the most common footprint adopted by automotive panel makers. This allows rapid adoption and verification, enabling its benefits to be made quickly available to automotive OEMs.

“With the addition of the TC1312V device to our Automotive portfolio, Parade remains committed to quickly expanding solutions for the cockpit displays, head-unit and Advanced-Driver-Assistance-System (ADAS) applications,” said Jimmy Chiu, Executive Vice-President of Marketing at Parade. “We are leveraging Parade’s deep experience in touch and display to offer solutions to address current needs in the automotive infotainment space and working in concert with panel makers, Tier 1s and OEMs, to continually address changing needs of the automotive cockpit display space.”
