With Ultimate Craftsmanship, M31 Develops IP Solutions for IoT

Hsinchu, Taiwan, September 9th, 2015 - M31 Technology, a global boutique silicon intellectual property (IP) developer announced various ultra low power IPs to target the Internet of things (IoT) related design projects.

M31 Technology cooperates closely with major world-class semiconductor foundries on advanced process technologies by providing various ultra low power IP solutions that particularly fits in the IoT design requirements on voltage and power. Related IPs are Low Power Cell Library, Green Memory Compiler, Low VCC_MIN Memory Compiler, and Low Power, high speed Interface IPs.

Instead of low power IP operated at 1.1V/1.2V, M31 creates IPs that can also run on 0.9V. This greatly reduces power leakage and dynamic power consumption. M31 also invented a unique solution of “Built-in ClocK” (BCK) USB PHY. By special IC circuit design and layout skill that M31 announces Tiny USB that is NOT only has compact die size but also consume ultra low power. In addition, M31 provides DC-DC IP low power solution too.

• The Tiny USB 2.0 PHY reduces the die area by over 50% and the power consumption by over 30%. This product already in mass production at the second quarter of 2015 through the compliance test of USB-IF organization.
• The new-generation ultra low voltage BCK USB 1.1 physical layer IP design supports an application at a USB device mode and provides a new-generation clock technology that has Real-Time Clock for signal interface. With this design, the IoT design projects benefit in the smallest die area and low power for USB transmission interface.
• The DC-DC IP low power design provides a total SoC solution to customers through advanced power management and Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS).

“M31 Technology Corporation constantly develop high-quality boutique IPs based on the spirit of ultimate technology and we use these innovative silicon IP solutions to assist our customers shorten the design cycle, lower down the manufacturing cost and improve product competitiveness that makes customers’ products outstanding in the semiconductor market place”, said H.P. Lin, the chairman of M31 Technology Corporation.

Besides high speed Interface IPs, M31 also develops other ultra low power IP solutions including:

• Low Power Cell Library contains “Power Management Kit (PMK)”, and “Low Leakage Standard Cell Library”.
• Green Memory Compiler contains “Dual-rail” and “Power gating” memory architecture. The former is for dynamic voltage frequency scaling (DVFS) on products with low dynamic operation power. The latter is to save static leakage power consumption on products.
• Low VCC_MIN Memory Compiler enables memory to operate at low-voltage and low-power applications.

Various ultra low power IP solutions developed by M31 Technology have the specialty of high performance, high density, and low operational voltage that satisfy the overall design requirements on IoT applications.
