JZP ComponentsInfineon 60 GHz Automotive Radar Reaches Channel Stock: BOM Notes for In-Cabin Monitoring
Infineon’s XENSIV BGT60ATR24AIP 60 GHz automotive radar sensor is now listed as active and preferred, while Mouser reports channel stock. This adds a sourcing option for in-cabin monitoring, but it is not evidence of a broad automotive-chip shortage.
Direct Answer
Infineon currently lists the XENSIV BGT60ATR24AIP as active and preferred, and Mouser reports that it is stocking the device. The sensor operates at 57.7–62.4 GHz, integrates 2 Tx and 4 Rx antennas, and is AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualified. For buyers, this is a concrete channel-availability signal for one automotive radar product—not evidence of a market-wide shortage or easing cycle.
Confirmed Product Signals
- Infineon product status: active and preferred.
- Automotive qualification: AEC-Q100 Grade 2.
- Frequency range: 57.7–62.4 GHz.
- Integrated antenna configuration: 2 transmit and 4 receive antennas.
- Target applications include child-presence detection, seat occupancy, driver vital-sign/drowsiness monitoring, gesture sensing and intrusion/proximity alerts.
Why It Matters for Automotive BOMs
In-cabin monitoring is becoming a multi-function sensing problem. A highly integrated radar device can support occupancy, micro-motion and driver-monitoring use cases without requiring separate sensing hardware for every function. For sourcing teams, the practical value is a new qualified option to evaluate against system cost, MCU load, antenna integration and production qualification requirements.
Availability Is Not the Same as Broad Market Supply
- Confirmed fact: the part is active and distributor stock is reported.
- Not confirmed: that all automotive radar devices or automotive semiconductors are broadly available.
- Shortage test: check exact OPN stock, lead time, allocation status and delivery date before drawing a conclusion.
RFQ Checklist
- Use the complete OPN, not only the family name.
- Confirm packaging, reel quantity and qualification requirements.
- Verify stock quantity and warehouse location at quote time.
- Check software, MCU and antenna-system compatibility before treating the device as a drop-in alternative.
- For automotive programs, confirm PPAP/traceability requirements and production change controls.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the BGT60ATR24AIP active?
Infineon currently lists it as active and preferred.
Does distributor stock mean there is no shortage risk?
No. It only confirms availability for a particular product and channel snapshot.
What should buyers verify first?
