Breakthrough in AR/VR SoC Innovation: Full Suite of Cutting-Edge Interface & Analog IP Cores Licensed by Tier-1 U.S. Customer

Jul. 14, 2025 – 

T2M-IP proudly announces that a Tier-1 U.S.-based customer has licensed its Interface and Analog IP Cores for next-generation AR/VR chipsets for integration into their upcoming line of high-performance, ultra-light AR/VR smart glasses.

The engagement covers an end-to-end suite of processing, AI, display, sensor, memory, interface, and Analog IP cores — engineered to enable immersive, low-latency, and power-efficient spatial experiences.

Highlight on USB and MIPI IPs Cores

USB 3.1 Gen 2 PHY & Controller IP Cores

  • Enables ultra-fast 10 Gbps connectivity for data offloading, firmware flashing, and diagnostic interfacing.
  • Supports USB Type-C with integrated orientation and power state management.

MIPI CSI-2 & DSI-2 PHY & Controller IP Cores

  • CSI-2 supports multi-lane, multi-stream camera integration (RGB, depth, IR, eye tracking).
  • DSI-2 drives dual high-resolution, low-latency displays with HDR and Display Stream Compression.

These USB and MIPI interfaces are the digital arteries of the AR/VR system. They ensure high-speed, real-time connectivity between compute, vision, and display — all under tight power budgets.”

 Analog IP Subsystem — The Sensory Backbone of Immersive Silicon

As AR/VR systems become increasingly reliant on real-world inputs and precision audio, the licensed IP set includes a robust Analog Subsystem that supports essential physical interfacing.

ADC IP (Analog-to-Digital Converter)

  • Resolution: Configurable 12–14-bit precision.
  • Use Cases:
    • Sensor fusion from analog IMUs, ambient light, temperature, and proximity sensors.
    • Audio digitization from analog microphones.
    • Power telemetry (battery voltage, current, temperature monitoring).
  • Features: Low-power SAR architecture, programmable sampling rates, multi-channel MUX.

DAC IP (Digital-to-Analog Converter)

  • Resolution: 14–16 bits for high-fidelity audio output and precision analog control.
  • Use Cases:
    • Audio playback to analog headphone drivers or speaker amps.
    • Haptic signal generation (vibration actuators).
    • Debug and analog test output support.

Additional Analog IP Blocks:

  • Low-Dropout Regulators (LDOs): Integrated analog power domains for clean supply rails.
  • Bandgap References: Temperature-stable analog reference voltages.
  • Analog Comparators: Threshold-based event triggering from sensors or power rails.

“Analog IP isn’t just supporting logic — it’s the real-world connective tissue for immersive experiences. “With precision ADC/DAC and robust analog signal handling, our platform brings XR hardware one step closer to biological realism.”

Customer Vision

The Tier-1 customer plans to deploy this IP suite in a new generation of AR/VR headsets targeting:

  • Enterprise XR collaboration
  • Consumer spatial entertainment
  • AI-enhanced training & simulation

Tape-out is expected later this year with first customer samples in early 2026.
