inSilicon's USB Leadership
USB is well on its way to becoming one of the most widely deployed high-speed point-to-point communications technologies, with estimated shipments in excess of 500 million devices to ship in 2003, according to In-Stat. USB provides true "plug-and-play" convenience for leading-edge technology products, including printers, scanners, digital cameras, speakers, and mobile communications and computing devices.
Pioneering advances and innovation in USB semiconductor intellectual property, inSilicon recently announced (6/26/00) an agreement with Cadence Design Services for the joint development of an integrated USB 2.0 analog transceiver, enabling customers with a complete system-on-chip solution for their USB 2.0 products.
inSilicon's broad USB technology portfolio includes a USB 2.0 device controller, the first USB 2.0 device controller fully supporting the USB 2.0 Transceiver Macrocell Interface (UTMI) specification. Conceptually proposed by inSilicon and developed by Intel Corporation, the UTMI specification is broadly supported by the industry's leading USB semiconductor, ASIC and FPGA suppliers including Hewlett-Packard Company, Lucent Microelectronics, Texas Instruments, Fujitsu, ST Microelectronics, Cypress Semiconductor and others.
inSilicon also offers a USB 1.1 OHCI host controller, USB 1.1 device controller, USB 1.1 hub controller as synthesizable cores, and a test environment that provides simulation and verification suites.
