OmniPhy Announces 2.5v I/O Transistor Based Mixed Signal PHY Availability in TSMC 28nm HPM
28nm Product line includes Gigabit Ethernet PHY, DDR4/3, HDMI 2.0, and SerDes.
San Jose, CA, May 23, 2014 --(PR.com)-- OmniPhy a provider of differentiated Analog & Mixed Signal Interface IP, announced the availability of its Interface PHY product line on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSMC) 28nm HPM process, designed using 2.5v I/O transistors.
These highly-integrated Interface PHY’s lead the industry in jitter performance, small package size and low power consumption.
The OmniPhy Mixed-Signal Intellectual Property includes,
· Giga Bit Ethernet PHY
· USB 3.0 / 2.0 PHY
· PCI Express 3.0 / 2.0 PHY
· SerDes PHY
· DDR4/3 PHY
· HDMI 2.0 PHY
all of which are available both in both 2.5v I/O transistor and 1.8v I/O transistor design.
“The challenge of identifying market opportunities for new product development, and successfully leveraging resources to capitalize on these opportunities is a critical element in the success of OmniPhy,” said Ritesh Saraf, OmniPhy’s Chief Operating Officer.
“Our 2.5v I/O transistor based PHY products allows designers to choose the best configurations to optimize power, performance and area for their applications SOC’s.”
The salient features our 2.5v I/O device based PHY library are,
· Higher Reliability
· Stronger ESD Performance
· High Yield on 28nm process
· Less Leakage Power
· Easier and more cost effective to port legacy SOC designs
A key advantage of the 2.5v I/O device based PHY IP is that no high voltage generation circuitry is required – all programming and re-programming is done using a standard CMOS technology with no additional masks or process adaption. This allows designs to operate from a single I/O supply, eliminating the complication of generating a separate, high-voltage signal to support legacy interface standards, or supporting a high-voltage I/O pad.
“Our customers provide a point of balance in the development of new products, simultaneously validating market and design decisions, while empowering the satisfaction of their unique needs – thus differentiating our products from our competitors,” said Claude Gauthier, Chief Operating Officer at OmniPhy.
“The decision not to support the 2.5v I/O transistor based design at 28nm by the EDA vendors forced SOC designers to adopt an expensive path of porting all their legacy interfaces to 1.8v I/O. We saw a unique opportunity to service the SOC market at 28nm with our 2.5v I/O transistor based PHY designs.
This most basic, but surprisingly elusive, information was essential to the success of our product and service offering”.
