Overview
The LVDS implements LVDS TIA/EIA protocol, providing a low-voltage, high-speed point-to-point signal interface. It supports either DDR-type (sensor-side) or Byte-type (screen-side). It uses differential signaling to transmit data over a constant-impedance transmission line, ensuring robust noise immunity and low power consumption.
The IP includes four parallel-load serial-out shift registers, a 7x clock PLL, and five LVDS line drivers integrated into a single circuit. It supports data transmission by converting parallel pixel data and sync signals into serialized LVDS streams, with the serial clock frequency multiplied seven times for efficient data transfer. The IP is highly scalable, extending from 5 lanes to N lanes based on customer requirements.
The TTL IP complements the LVDS solution, providing a parallel interface for data transmission. It extends the LVDS functionality by supporting additional TTL lines as needed, ensuring flexibility for various system designs. The TTL interface is configurable through an APB bus, enabling seamless integration into diverse applications. Together, LVDS and TTL IPs offer a versatile solution for high-speed, low-power data transmission in demanding environments.

Innosilicon, a leading IP provider, offers a complete PCIe 5.0 solution stack that includes both PHY and controller IPs. Although both layers are crucial to achieving a fully compliant and high-performance PCIe interface, this paper deep dives into the technical challenges of PHY design, highlighting insights drawn from real-world design margins, receiver robustness, and advanced jitter analysis in the context of Gen5 systems.
In recent years, emerging industries such as AI, Internet of Things, 5G, and intelligent networked vehicles have flourished, and the high requirements for performance have greatly increased the scale and complexity of chips, constantly challenging IP limitations.
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.
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.

Since MIPI and MDDI standards both target interfaces to cameras and displays on mobile devices, are two separate standards really needed?
