Overview

Silicon agnostic implementation of the Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) compliant with Ethernet standard IEEE 802.3-2018

The Ethernet PCS 1G2.5G IP core is a silicon agnostic implementation of the Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) compliant with Ethernet standard IEEE 802.3-2018. The IP core supports 1G and 2.5G line rates, however other Ethernet PCS speeds are available, such as 10G/25G and 100G. The IP provides an interface between the Media Access Control (MAC) and Physical Medium Attachment (PMA) through a Gigabit Media Independent Interface (GMII) or Serial Gigabit Media Independent Interface (SGMII).

On one side it interfaces to a SerDes device and on the application side it has a port for GMII/SGMII Ethernet signals.

The Ethernet PCS 1G/2.5G IP core is verified using advanced methodologies for RTL design, verification, HW verification and interoperability testing. It has been optimized for size and is a highly tested solution that will fast track any project.

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.

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?
