"By providing the VIP and tools needed for customers to design to the newest Ethernet standards, Cadence helps expand the Ethernet ecosystem, enabling new products from new industries to enter the market," said John D'Ambrosia, chairman of the Ethernet Alliance.
The new VIP solutions are for the following standard protocols:
-- Ethernet 400G -- The highest performance Ethernet standard critical for
enterprise networking to support the increasing bandwidth needs of video
on demand, cloud computing and big data applications.
-- Ethernet TSN -- A new set of specifications ideal for low-latency
applications, such as real-time audio/video streaming, that require
time-sensitive communication necessary in automotive and industrial
automation. Cadence will be the first in the industry to support this
specification.
-- SPI NAND and Octal SPI -- Critical new memory protocols for automotive
and industrial applications that provide higher density performance with
the same footprint as previous generations.
-- UFS 2.1 -- Improves data security through the use of inline cryptography
between the SoC and UFS Storage device.
-- USB Type-C -- Enables power delivery, alternate modes and high-speed
data over a single connector for consumer and mobile applications.
-- DisplayPort (1.3, 1.4) and Embedded DisplayPort (eDP 1.4a, 1.4b) -- For
8K resolution and scaling at reduced power envelopes for consumer and
mobile applications.
-- Display Stream Compression (DSC) -- Enables real-time, visually lossless
image compression for consumer and mobile applications.
-- MIPI DSI-2 -- For a high-speed, low-power-consumption interface between
a peripheral and a host for consumer applications.
-- MIPI CSI-2 2.0 -- For a high-speed, robust, scalable, low-power and
cost-effective camera interface that supports a wide range of imaging
for mobile applications.
