SD/EMMC PHY

Physical Layer Interface for SD and eMMC Storage Devices

Overview

The SD/eMMC PHY provides the physical interface between the digital controller and external memory storage, such as SD cards or eMMC chips. The PHY includes delayline, DigiLogic, and high speed IO which are compliant with SD/eMMC protocol. The SD/eMMC PHY I/O signal voltage is within 3.3V/1.8V. This IP supports SD3.1 and eMMC5.1, including dual data rate for DDR50 and HS400, and single data rate for SDR104 and HS200.

Key features

  • DLL_CLK frequency : 50 MHz to 208 MHz
  • SD operation modes: DS, HS, DDR50, SDR50, and SDR104
  • eMMC bus modes: HS200 and HS400
  • Type: 1 bi-directional CLK + 1 bi-directional CMD + 8 bi-directional DATA channel
  • IO driver supports 33/50/66/100Ω terminations
  • Power Supply:
    • Digital supply: 0.72 V to 0.88 V
    • Analog supply: 2.97 V to 3.63 V
  • Operating junction temperature: -40°C~125°C

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.

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?
