Validating USB Type-C using Physical PrototypingBreaking the Three Laws - Michael PosnerFeb. 01, 2016 |
This week Synopsys Introduced the DesignWare USB 3.1 Type-C IP with DisplayPort 1.3 and HDCP 2.2 for High-Bandwidth Data Transfer with Content Protection. USB has been continually evolving and USB Type-C is the one cable to connect them all. The USB Type-C is already gaining widespread acceptance and is becoming the most rapidly adopted USB standard in history. The need to rapidly adopt a new standard comes with challenges for the design engineers, verification team and the software developers.
Synopsys has solved the challenges for these three groups. The DesignWare IP solution is fully validated and ready to integrate into your design. The digital controller is validated against the analog PHY portion significantly reducing integration risk. Engineers can reduce the time and effort of integrating the IP into SoCs utilizing the DesignWare USB-C 3.1/DisplayPort 1.3 IP subsystems, IP prototyping kits and IP software development kits supported as part of the IP Accelerated initiative. Design engineers, verification engineers and software developers challenges solved!
