The MIPI RFFE Master controller IP is a highly optimized and technology agnostic implementation of the MIPI RFFE v.3.1 standard targeting both ASIC and FPGA technologies. This IP is used to connect a digital RFIC to RF front end components, like Power Amplifiers (PA), Low-Noise Amplifiers (LNA), filters, switches, power management modules, Antenna Turner and Sensors, which are considered RFFE Slaves.
It supports up to 15 slaves and 4 masters that can be connected through RFFE bus. This MIPI RFFE Master IP is backward compatible with MIPI RFFE components version 3.0, 2.1, 2.0 and 1.0.
The IP-core has been heavily tested in System Verilog random regression environment.
The MIPI RFFE Master IP core is a highly optimized Silicon Agnostic implementation of the MIPI RFFE protocol version 3.1, used to connect a digital RFIC to RF Front end components, targeting both ASIC and FPGA’s. It delivers all features of the standard and allows for great configurability of features.
The IP support Multiple Masters on the bus with proper Bus Master Handover procedures as well as up to 15 Slave devices making it possible to build the most complex of systems.
Trigger remapping, and timed trigger operation, allow to make efficient use of the slave registers via the shadow register mechanism, coordinating the register value changes to specific points in time.
