Overview
The multi-lane Multi-Protocol 32G PHY IP is part of a high-performance multi-rate transceiver portfolio for high-end networking and cloud computing applications. The PHY is small in area and provides a low active and standby power solution that supports multiple electrical standards, including PCI Express (PCIe) 5.0, 1G to 400G Ethernet, Cache Coherent Interconnect for Accelerators (CCIX), Compute Express Link (CXL), SATA, and other industry-standard interconnect protocols Using leading-edge design, analysis, simulation, and measurement techniques, the multi-protocol 32G PHY delivers signal integrity and jitter performance that exceeds the standards electrical specifications.
The configurable transmitter and receiver equalizers along with Continuous Calibration and Adaptation (CCA) enable designers to control and optimize signal integrity and performance across voltage and temperature variations. The PHY provides advanced power management features for both standby and active power. The BERT and internal eye monitor provide on-chip testability and visibility into channel performance. The PHY integrates seamlessly with the Synopsys Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) and Media Access Control (MAC) to reduce design time and to help designers achieve first-pass silicon success.

Model authoring kits (MAKs) enable the rapid development of transaction-level models, TLMs, of a given functionality or protocol. MAKs include base functionalities that are common to all models independent of the RTL implementation in a well-structured way, allowing for maximum reuse. The DesignWare System-Level Library provides MAKs for UART and USB. Taking the example of a USB 2.0 EHCI controller model using MAKs, this paper explains the significant design time reduction that can be achieved.
This article discusses the road to achieving compliance and the role that Synopsys DesignWare Intellectual Property (IP) for PCI Express can play in helping to achieve interoperability and compliance
Using complete, integrated DDR2 SDRAM memory physical interface IP solutions can significantly reduce the risks associated with combining discrete memory subsystem blocks, such as interoperability and schedule. Packaged as a complete, integrated place-and
Discover Synopsys’ first complete UFS 5.0 and M‑PHY v6.0 IP solution for high-speed, efficient storage in mobile, automotive, and AI-enabled systems.
Synopsys continues to lead innovation with the industry’s first commercially available CXL 4.0 Verification IP (VIP). This comprehensive solution supports the full 128 GT/s data rate, IO throttling, and streamlined port negotiation, equipping designers to validate and optimize their products for the future.
In our current work, we focus on the low power analysis and verification challenges and the methodology used to verify low power design. The power-gating feature that we term Hibernation brings in significant power savings to Synopsys SSIC IP Controller. The verification tests the functionality of the Controller before, during and after hibernation state. The low power analysis will showcase the power savings achieved in SSIC IP with and Without Hibernation.
