Synopsys Expands DesignWare MIPI IP Portfolio with DSI and CSI-2 Device Controllers
Complete MIPI Display and Camera Interface IP Solutions Deliver High Bandwidth and Low Power for Mobile, Automotive and IoT SoCs
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- July 20, 2016 -- Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq:SNPS), today announced the immediate availability of its new DesignWare® MIPI® CSI-2℠ Device Controller IP and DesignWare MIPI DSI℠ Device Controller IP for mobile, automotive and Internet of Things (IoT) system-on-chips (SoCs). The IP solutions are compliant with the MIPI CSI-2 v1.2 and MIPI DSI v1.2 specifications and enhanced to meet the key functional safety requirements of automotive-grade applications. The integrated debug and test capability accelerates design time and lowers test cost. The DSI device controller receives commands in low-power and high-speed modes, addressing requirements of both video and command displays. The flexible image interface in the MIPI CSI-2 device controller allows transmission of pixels between the IP and SoC at high bit rates for an optimized implementation. Synopsys' complete MIPI camera and display interface IP solutions consisting of controllers, PHY, verification IP and IP Prototyping Kits, enable designers to quickly implement the required functionality and accelerate time-to-market.
"As a leading provider of ASIC services, Global Unichip Corporation develops solutions that enable our customers to deliver innovative products with unique functionality," said Jim Lai, president of Global UniChip Corporation. "For our latest high-end camera design, we needed a camera interface solution that was interoperable with numerous application processors, configurable to eight lanes, and supported MIPI D-PHY. With Synopsys' DesignWare MIPI CSI-2 Device Controller IP, we delivered a design that enabled our customer to successfully deliver an ultra-high-definition, computational camera."
"Synopsys is continuously driving the development and adoption of MIPI interfaces in the ecosystem as a Board Member," said Joel Huloux, chairman of the board of MIPI Alliance. "The company provides the design community with a MIPI IP solution that designers can confidently integrate in their SoCs."
Synopsys' silicon-proven DesignWare MIPI CSI-2 and DSI Device Controllers provide advanced features that enable designers to implement the required camera and display functionality in mobile, automotive, IoT applications and beyond. The device controllers, interoperable with DesignWare MIPI D-PHY v1.2 operating at 2.5 Gbps/lane, deliver high total bandwidth with a reduced number of lanes and power-per-bit of data. The DesignWare MIPI CSI-2 Device Controller supports up to eight lanes of operation and the DesignWare MIPI DSI Device Controller supports up to four lanes for high resolution systems.
"MIPI interfaces are widely used in applications such as mobile, automotive, IoT and beyond to address increasing requirements for high-bandwidth, low-power camera and display functionality," said John Koeter, vice president of marketing for IP and prototyping at Synopsys. "By providing complete, silicon-proven MIPI CSI-2 and MIPI DSI IP solutions, compliant to the latest specifications, Synopsys enables designers to meet the specific frame rate, color depth, resolution, power and area requirements of their design, while lowering integration risk."
