The MR2001 from NXP is a 77 GHz radar transceiver chipset scalable for multi-channel operation enabling a single radar platform with electronic beam steering and wide field of view to support long-range radar (LRR), mid-range radar (MRR) and short-range radar (SRR) applications. It consists of a VCO (MR2001VC), a two-channel Tx transmitter (MR2001TX) and a three-channel Rx receiver (MR2001RX). This 77 GHz radar transceiver chipset is designed to support fast modulation with simultaneous active channels, enabling excellent spatial resolution and detection accuracy across a wide field of view. The chipset supports a large variety of chirps in open loop VCO radar system architectures and consumes less than 2.5 watts of power. An integrated BB filter and VGA saves on the total BOM. It is available in a surface mount package and is ideal for ADAS, mm-Wave backhaul systems, industrial surveillance and security systems.
