Certified USB 5G & 10G Host Controller

Overview

USB 5G, 10G Host controller is a highly configurable core and implements the USB Host functionality that can be interfaced with third party USB PHY’s. For Product Brief and Datasheet of USB please contact us.The Host Controller core is architected with a high performance DMA engine in the xHCI Interface for maximizing performance.

The Host Controller core supports all mandatory and optional features of the xHCI power management interface. The design is carefully partitioned to support standard power management schemes. Optionally, it can be configured to manage power mode transitions of the controller and the USB PHY for aggressive power savings required for mobile and handheld devices.

The controller has a very simple application interface which can be easily adapted to standard on-chip-bus interfaces such as AXI, AHB, OCP etc. Optionally, it can be interfaced to standard PCIe core with optional virtualization support, for standard host adaptor implementations.

The controller's simple, configurable and layered architecture is independent of application logic, PHY designs, implementation tools and, most importantly, the target technology. Our solution allows the licensees to easily migrate among FPGA, Gate array and Standard cell technologies optimally. Its flexible backend interface makes it easy to be integrated into wide range of applications.
