Overview

The PCIe 4.0 PHY IP provides high-performance, multi-lane capability and low power architecture for high-bandwidth applications. The PCIe 4.0 IP supports a complete range of PCIe 4.0 Base applications and is compliant with the PIPE 4.4.1 specification. The IP integrates high-speed mixed signal circuits to support 16Gbps PCIe 4.0 traffic and is backward compatible with 8.0Gbps PCIe 3.1, 5.0Gbps PCIe 2.1 and 2.5Gbps PCIe 1.1 data rates. With the support of TX and RX equalization techniques, the PCIe 4.0 IP is designed to meet the requirements of different channel conditions.

Key features

  • Fully compliant with PCI Express Base 4.0, PCI Express Base 3.1, PCI Express Base 2.1 and PCI Express Base 1.1 electrical specifications
  • Compliant with PIPE4.4.1 (PCIe) specification
  • Supports all power saving modes (P0, P0s, P1, P2) defined in PIPE4.4.1 specification
  • Supports L1 PM Substates with CLKREQ#
  • Supports L1 Clock Power Management (CPM) with CLKREQ#
  • Supports Separate Refclk Independent SSC (SRIS) architecture
  • Accessible register controls allow user-specific optimization of critical parameters (e.g., TXPLL bandwidth, TX de-emphasis level, CDR bandwidth, and EQ strength)
  • Supports robust BIST functions for mass production testing
  • Dual-mode reference clock pad: Output 100-MHz clock reference clock for RC mode or receive 100-MHz clock for EP mode
  • Can be configured up to multi-lane (x4, x8, x16) design with multiple instances
  • Available in 12nm/16nm, 7nm, and 5nm processes

UFS Goes Mainstream

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.

Design IP Faster: Introducing the C~ High-Level Language

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.

Universal Flash Storage: Mobilize Your Data

Universal Flash 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 UniProSM as well as eMMC form factors to simplify adoption and development.

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?
