Arasan Chip Systems Releases SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Software Stacks
The USB 3.0 Host and Device software stacks are compliant with the USB 3.0 v1.0 specification. The xHCI Driver is compliant with the latest xHCI v0.9 specification and replaces multiple Host Controller Interface drivers with a single driver. These high quality USB 3.0 portable stack solutions, written in ANSI C, consist of hardware and OS independent modules connected to platform specific wrappers that interface with the application software, OS and the underlying hardware. The portable software has a well documented set of API which ease application-level integration.
With a peak bandwidth of 5 Gbps, USB 3.0 is expected to be deployed in applications such as HD camcorders, high resolution digital still cameras, portable multi-media and mass storage devices, that are currently constrained by the lower bandwidth of USB 2.0. USB 3.0 adds new features for power management while increasing its capacity to charge such devices. To hasten application integration, Arasan has developed USB 3.0 drivers such as a Mass Storage Class driver. Arasan’s USB 3.0 software includes built-in support for test and debug which shortens the system development cycle. It supports all USB transfer modes such as Control, Bulk, Isochronous and Interrupt.
“The impending adoption of USB 3.0 places immense pressure on system designers to be the first to incorporate USB 3.0 in their products,” said Somnath Viswanath, Product Marketing Manager at Arasan. “The combination of Arasan’s proven Superspeed USB 3.0 IP cores with the corresponding portable software stack enable designers to easily integrate SuperSpeed USB without a lengthy porting and verification effort”. Arasan’s comprehensive portfolio of SuperSpeed USB 3.0 includes IP for Host, Device, and Hub controllers and corresponding portable software stacks and xHCI driver.
