MIPI M-PHY, 4GRF/3GRF

The INNOSILICON MIPI M-PHY transceiver is fully compatible with V1-00-00 specifications. It supports both master and slave roles in HS Gear 1~3 and LS operation. The M-PHY uses the MIPI standard M-PORTs Protocol Interface to simplify controller integration and supports DigRFv4, SSIC, and UniPro MIPI protocols.

The architecture is customizable and allows support from 1 to 4 lanes for increased throughput. It is designed with ease of integration in mind. The PHY is small, low power and contains all I/Os including primary and secondary ESD.

Efficient production testing is assured through built in BIST, multiple loop back modes and Boundary scan support.

KEY FEATURES:

  • Silicon proven in SMIC 28nm technology
  • Easily ported into any technology
  • Compliant with MIPI M-PHY V1-00-00 standard
