MIPI C-PHY/D-PHY Combo v1.2 IP in TSMC(5nm, 7nm, 12/16nm, 28nm and 40nm)
MIPI D-PHY is a serial interface technology which is widely adopted in smartphones and other multimedia enabled mobile devices.
Overview
MIPI D-PHY is a serial interface technology which is widely adopted in smartphones and other multimedia enabled mobile devices. To further improve throughput over bandwidth limited channel, the C-PHY is developed and is delivering 2.28 bits per symbol over three-wire trio. As a MIPI Alliance contributor and leading Interface IP provider, M31 provides a silicon-proven, low-power and low cost C-PHY/D-PHY combo IP on various process nodes. Users can configure the PHY into D-PHY mode or C-PHY mode to support different applications using the same PHY. It is compliant to the PPI interface which allows seamless integration with upside controllers for Camera Serial Interface (CSI-2) and Display Serial Interface (DSI) protocols.
Key features
- Compliant with MIPI D-PHY v1.2 and C-PHY v1.2 specs
- Support both MIPI DSI and CSI-2 protocols
- Support HS data rate from 80Mbps (0.8Gsps) up to 2.5Gbps (3.5Gsps) per lane (per trio)
- Support LS data rate of 10Mbps and Ultra-low power mode
- Support D-PHY mode with 1 clock lane & up to 4 data lanes
- Support C-PHY mode up to 3 trios for TX and 4 trios for RX
- Support TX-EQ function to compensate loss of a long channel
- Support additional D-PHY RX mode with 2 sets of (1 clock lane and up to 2 data lanes)
- Support additional C-PHY RX mode with 2 sets of 2 trios
- Provide D-PHY clock and data lane swap function
- Provide C-PHY trios swap function
- Provide a stand-alone at-speed multi-lanes (trios) parallel BIST module for mass production tests
