Overview

In USB product series, M31 not only provides customers with a standard USB PHY solution, but also offers a unique BCK function. M31’s patented BCK (Built-in-Clock, a.k.a. Crystal-less) technology is an innovative way to save BOM(Bill of Materials) cost by reducing an external crystal for mobile USB devices. In general, this solution has been popularly adopted by those USB devices in applications like flash drive, wireless transmitter, sound card, webcam. During USB data transfer, the IP performs a background calibration to ensure frequency accuracy. The USB IP with BCK complies with the USB-IF specification and has the same electrical performance as the standard USB IP.

Key features

  • Smallest USB 3.2 Gen1x1 BCK PHY IP worldwide (e.g. IP size @40nm <0.36mm²)
  • Fully compliant with Universal Serial Bus USB 3.2 Gen1x1, 2.0, and 1.1 electrical specifications
  • Supports clock outputs from the internal BCK module
  • Real-time calibrations to ensure frequency accuracy
  • Data UI (unit interval) is well-controlled within ±500ppm during data transfer
  • Concise and explicit design structure to ease the IP 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.

Universal Flash Storage: Mobilize Your Data

Universal Flash 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 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?
