MIPI M-PHY IP
The MIPI M-PHY is a high-frequency low-power, Physical Layer IP that supports the MIPI® Alliance Standard for M-PHY.
Overview
The MIPI M-PHY is a high-frequency low-power, Physical Layer IP that supports the MIPI® Alliance Standard for M-PHY. The IP can be used as a physical layer for many applications, connecting flash memory-based storage, cameras and RF subsystems, and for providing chip-to-chip inter-processor communications (IPC).
It supports MIPI UniPro and JEDEC Universal Flash Storage (UFS) standard. By using efficient BURST mode operation with scalable speeds, significant power savings can be obtained. Selection of signal slew rate and amplitude allows reduction of EMI/RFI, while maintaining low bit error rates.
Key features
- Complies with MIPI Standard for M-PHY, Draft Specification v0.90.
- Dual-simplex point-to-point interface with ultra low voltage differential signaling
- Slew-rate control for EMI reduction
- Supports all HS modes (GEAR 1-2)
- Supports all Type-I LS modes (GEAR 0-7)
- Supports Type I & II LS mode
- 1-3Gbps data rate in HS mode
- 0.01-576Mbps data rate in LS mode
- Suitable for copper and optical media
- Modular design to allow for all possible configurations
- Low power dissipation
- Uses "Legorithmic" approach to allow for all possible configurations

Towards Self-Driving Cars: MIPI D-PHY Enabling Advanced Automotive Applications
Since the invention of the automobile well over a century ago, car manufacturers have been focused on creating the highest-speed, safest, and most fuel-efficient cars possible.
Demystifying MIPI C-PHY / DPHY Subsystem
The newest member of the MIPI® PHY family, the C-PHY, arrived in October 2014 to a mixture of excitement and apprehension. How would this new C-PHY compare to the MIPI D-PHY and M-PHY®? What would differentiate the C-PHY, and would it be compatible enough with the D-PHY so that both could coexist in a hybrid subsystem? Now, years later, the answers are clear.
Can MIPI and MDDI Co-Exist?
Since MIPI and MDDI standards both target interfaces to cameras and displays on mobile devices, are two separate standards really needed?
