SD/eMMC in TSMC (28nm, 16nm, 12nm, N7, N6)

Overview

To address today’s content capacity and bandwidth requirements, JEDEC and SD Association continue to define new functionality and enhancements for embedded mass-storage flash memory (eMMC) and removable flash memory card (SD Card), targeting a range of applications. The Synopsys SD/eMMC PHY IP, compliant with the latest JEDEC and SD specifications, is a fully integrated hard macro with high-speed IOs and Delay Locked Loop (DLL)/delay lines. Optimized for power and area, the PHY IP is fully verified and configurable for easy integration into application processors. The PHY IP and Synopsys SD/eMMC Host Controller IP offer a fully verified solution that designers can use to integrate the latest embedded and removable memory functionality into their application processor, while speeding time-to-market.
