Innovative Logic announces free licensing of their USB 3.0 SuperSpeed IP

Santa Clara – July 06, 2011 – Innovative Logic Inc.(Inno-Logic), leading provider of reusable standard based Intellectual Property (IP) and ASIC/FPGA design & verification services announced today they will start free licensing their USB3.0 Device Controller IP for prototyping purposes. Inno-Logic will also help their customers to create prototype by sharing their expertise in that area. The Inno_logic’s USB3.0 Device Controller IP is very stable, fully verified by many of customers and partners for last 2 years. Inno-Logic has also been show casing fully working USB3.0 mass storage demo. The demo demonstrates all USB3.0 functionality flawlessly between Inno_logic’s USB3.0 Device Controller and host controller from the most popular USB3.0 vendor. The following are some of the key features of Inno-Logic’s USB3.0 IP:

Key Features

• Fully compliant with USB 3.0 specification v1.0.
• Fully compliant with USB3.0 PIPE specification.
• Support all transfer types – Control, Bulk, Isochronous and Interrupt transfers.
• Support upto 15 IN & 15 OUT functional endpoints along with a default control endpoint.
• Support industry standard 32 bit bus interface – AMBA AXI.
• System verilog based coverage driven verification.
• Verification done using more than one reputed Verification IP

“An option of free licensing for prototyping purposes will ease the anxiety of new customers to ensure that the IP is fully working before going through lengthy legal process of negotiating the licensing terms. In the past, many customers burnt out by hearing very good stories and then saw the complete opposite after licensing. We need to change that trend and start having some trust factor between the customer and IP vendor” said Dinesh Tyagi, President & CEO.

Inno-Logic’s USB3.0 solution has gone through extensive pre and post silicon tests to ensure that it works seamlessly at customer end. We have also tested our IP using multiple PHY and VIP vendors. Inno-Logic is also showcasing fully working demo on request basis. This demo demonstrates how easily you can connect our controller to your PC without going through any learning curve.

USB3.0 will facilitate users to download data up to 5.0 Gbits/sec (Super-Speed mode). This will make users much comfortable transferring the data for high-end devices such as HD videos, high resolution pictures, big software database in far lesser time compared to older technology. Typical USB3.0 based applications are removable hard drives, flash drives, high-end video and imaging devices, HDTV displays, high-resolution printer/scanner, etc.

USB3.0 IP is currently available for licensing worldwide. The IP is currently available in both soft IP and FPGA netlist formats. The soft IP deliverables include RTL source code, test vectors, scripts and User Manual. The FPGA netlist deliverables include test vectors, scripts, User Manual along with the FPGA netlist. The FPGA netlist will be licensed to qualified customers by just charging a token support fee to create release for select FPGA devices and some associated support around it. The complete FPGA demo is also available . It uses 3rd party FPGA board and 3rd party USB3.0 host controller.
