Acconeer completes AEC - Q100 grade 3 qualification of the A1 radar sensor for the automotive industry. The A1 sensor AEC - Q100 grade 3 qualification, which covers the temperatures -40°C - +85°C, has been completed a quarter ahead of previously announced plans. AEC - Q100 is a failure mechanism based stress test qualification for integrated circuits used in automotive applications. This specification has been established by the Automotive Electronics Council (AEC) to define qualification requirements and procedures for integrated circuits used in the automotive industry. An AEC - Q100 qualified device means that the device has passed the specified stress tests and guarantees a certain level of quality and reliability.
