Silicon-Proven DesignWare IP Lowers Design Risk and Allows Interoperability with USB 3.0-Enabled Products
Synopsys announced that its DesignWare SuperSpeed USB 3.0 xHCI (Extensible Host Controller Interface) IP has successfully passed the USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF) SuperSpeed USB certification.
The xHCI specification provides a standardized method for SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.0) host controllers to communicate with the USB 3.0 software stack. To achieve certification, the IP must support the new U1 and U2 power modes as well as all four USB transfer speeds, including SuperSpeed (5.0 Gbps), Hi-Speed (480 Mbps), Full-Speed (12 Mbps) and Low-Speed USB (1.5 Mbps). Synopsys is the only USB IP provider with both certified SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Host and Device IP.
The complete DesignWare SuperSpeed USB 3.0 IP solution offers a unified architecture, enabling designers to significantly lower integration risk by eliminating the requirement to manage two distinct USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 datapaths in their system-on-chip (SoC) designs. Optimized for small area and low-power, the DesignWare SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Host Controller is already in products that are in mass production. It is ideal for battery-powered, portable devices.

Agreement Driven by Performance Needs of Mobile Device Market
MIPI Alliance and the USB 3.0 Promoter Group announced the signing of a letter agreement between the two organizations. The agreement will facilitate the combined use of the MIPI M-PHY(SM) physical layer with the SuperSpeed USB protocol and software layers to produce the SuperSpeed Inter-Chip (SSIC) specification. Currently under development, the specification will bring M-PHY’s exceptional high bandwidth and low power, and the significant performance enhancements of SuperSpeed USB “inside” the mobile device interface system. The two groups anticipate the SSIC specification will be available to USB adopters in early 2012.
“USB 3.0 and MIPI Alliance both benefit from this agreement,” said Brian O’Rourke, Research Director at In-Stat. “USB 3.0 gains a path inside the box of a number of large, fast growing applications, including mobile phones and digital cameras. And MIPI gains access to the next generation of the world’s most successful interface technology and its software.” Read the rest of this entry »
