Simulation VIP for UFS

Overview

In production since 2012 on multiple production designs.</lead>

This Cadence® Verification IP (VIP) supports the JEDEC Universal Flash Storage (UFS) standard. The VIP for UFS is compatible with the industry-standard Universal Verification Methodology (UVM), runs on all leading simulators, and leverages the industry-standard Cadence Memory Model core architecture, interface, and use model.

The JEDEC UFS standard is an emerging standard for storage devices tailored specifically for mobile applications and computing systems requiring high performance and low power consumption. The UFS standard adopts the well-known SCSI architecture model and command protocols supporting multiple commands with command queuing features and enabling a multi-thread programming paradigm. To achieve the highest performance and most power-efficient data transport, JEDEC UFS aligns with industry-leading specifications from the MIPI® Alliance to form its Interconnect Layer.

Supported Specifications: Latest proposals balloted at JEDEC for UFS 4.0 and the official specifications for UFS 1.1, UFS 2.0, UFS 2.1, UFS 3.0 and UFS 3.1.
