Overview

The USB 2.0 Device IP core is Arasan’s latest development that enables designers in the PC, mobile, consumer and communication markets to bring significant power and performance enhancements to the popular USB standard while offering backward compatibility with billions of USB-enabled devices currently in the market.

The Arasan USB 2.0 compliant device core is available with an AHB/AXI, OCP or custom system bus interface. The USB2.0 device core supports 480 Mbits/s in High Speed (HS) mode and 12 Mbits/s in Full Speed (FS) mode of operation. Arasan provides designers with a comprehensive, silicon-proven configurable digital USB 2.0 Device solution that conforms to the USB 2.0 specification. It is designed to seamlessly integrate into any SoC design for an easy and cost effective solution. The Arasan USB 2.0 IP core supports up to 30 configurable IN/OUT non-control endpoints.

Each non-control endpoint has a controller for supporting interrupt, bulk and isochronous transfers. The dedicated control endpoint 0 handles USB defined command structure for Device Control. The USB 2.0 Device IP includes a multi-channel DMA that can be configured to access any endpoint through registers. Optionally, it can interface with an external DMA controller. The USB 2.0 Device IP core provides a UTMI/ULPI interface that allows connection to any USB 2.0 transceiver module. This product is listed in the USB.org database as ACS201.

Arasan is the among the industry’s first providers of USB IP with the launch of its USB 1.1 Device IP in 1996 and the industries ONLY provider to offer a Total USB 2.0 IP Solution which includes its USB 2.0 Host IP Core, USB 2.0 Device IP Core, USB 2.0 Hub IP, USB 2.0 OTG IP, the USB 2.0 PHY IP and software for multiple OS..

SuperSpeed USB 3.0: Ubiquitous Interconnect for Next Generation Consumer Applications

To address the bandwidth limitations of the USB 2.0 interface, the USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF) released the SuperSpeed USB 3.0 specifications in November 2008. The USB 3.0 specification provides a maximum bandwidth of up to 5Gbps while limiting power consumption. In this white paper we present the features of the USB 3.0 protocol, discuss the new usage models it enables and compare it with some of the existing interface standards popular in the market today.

eUSB2V2: Trends and Innovations Shaping the Future of Embedded Connectivity

In an era defined by rapid technological advancement, embedded interfaces must evolve to meet the demands of smaller form factors, lower power budgets, and diversified use cases. Among these interfaces, eUSB2V2 (Embedded USB 2.0 Version 2) has emerged not just as a legacy-support PHY, but as a strategic enabler of robust, low-power connectivity across next-generation systems-on-chip (SoCs).
