Overview

The 112G Ethernet PHY IP, an integral part of the 400GbE/800GbE Ethernet solution enables long reach (LR), medium reach (MR), very short reach (VSR) electrical channels and CEI-112G-Linear, and CEI-112G-XSR+ optical interfaces. The 112G LR-Max PHY surpasses the performance targets of 112G-LR specification further extending channel reach in High Performance Compute applications.

The silicon-proven IP enables up to 800GbE hyperscale data center, networking, AI, pluggable optical module and Ethernet switch SoCs requiring high bandwidth and low latency.

112G LR-Max PHY

Using leading-edge analog mixed-signal design and advanced digital signal processing technologies, the 112G LR-Max PHY IP provides additional margins to the CEI-112G LR specification and provides three orders of magnitude better bit error rate compared to the spec for 45dB channels.

112G LR PHY

The power efficient PHY offers orders of magnitude better BER performance for Long Reach chip to chip channels with two connecters and multiple media. The PHYs’ flexible layout maximizes bandwidth per die-edge by allowing the placement of square macros in a multi-row structure and along all edges of the die. Support for the Pulse-Amplitude Modulation 4-Level (PAM-4), Non- Return-to-Zero (NRZ) signaling, and independent, per-lane data rates allows ultimate flexibility to address a broad range of protocols and applications.

112G VSR PHY

Architected for very short reach chip-to-chip or chip-to-module electrical channels, the ultra-low power 112G VSR PHY enables power efficient pluggable and near packaged 400GbE/800GbE electro-optical interfaces. Combined with Synopsys' routing feasibility study, packages substrate guidelines, signal and power integrity models, and thorough crosstalk analysis, Synopsys provides a comprehensive 112G Ethernet PHY IP products for fast and reliable SoC integration.

UFS Goes Mainstream

UniversalFlash Storage (UFS) was created for mobile applications and computer systems requiring high performance and low power consumption. These systems typically use embedded Flash based on the JEDEC standard eMMC. UFS was defined by JEDEC as the evolutionary replacement for eMMC offering significantly higher memory bandwidth. The standard builds on existing standards such as the SCSI command set, the MIPI Alliance M-PHY and UniPro as well as eMMC form factors to simplify adoption and development.

Design IP Faster: Introducing the C~ High-Level Language

In this paper, we introduce a new high-level, dataflow programming language called C~ (“C flow”) that further increases productivity by raising the level of abstraction from behavioral descriptions, while overcoming the limitations of C for hardware design. We present the syntax and semantics of this language, and the framework that provides hardware and software code generation. This paper illustrates the benefits of using C~ for hardware design of a IEEE 802.3 MAC, synthesized for FPGA and for 90nm CMOS technology.

These systems typically use embedded Flash based on the JEDEC standard eMMC. UFS was defined by JEDEC as the evolutionary replacement for eMMC offering significantly higher memory bandwidth. The standard builds on existing standards such as the SCSI command set, the MIPI Alliance M-PHY and UniProSM as well as eMMC form factors to simplify adoption and development.

Can MIPI and MDDI Co-Exist?

Since MIPI and MDDI standards both target interfaces to cameras and displays on mobile devices, are two separate standards really needed?
