- Silicon-proven C-PHY and D-PHY physical layers
- Also includes I3C, UniPro, and SoundWire IP
- Total IP solution including Verification IP and software
- Available on a wide range of foundry processes
🎯 Key Differentiators
- Long history and deep focus on MIPI standards
- 'Total IP Solution' approach simplifies procurement and support
- Early adopter of new MIPI standards
Unique Value: Simplifies the integration of complex MIPI interfaces by providing a comprehensive, one-stop-shop for all required components—controllers, PHYs, verification IP, and software—from a single, expert vendor.
🎯 Use Cases (5)
✅ Best For
- Connecting a high-resolution camera sensor to an SoC in a smartphone
- Driving a high-resolution display in a car's digital cockpit
- Providing the sensor interface for an industrial machine vision system
💡 Check With Vendor
Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:
- Systems that do not use MIPI interfaces for camera or display
🏆 Alternatives
The 'Total IP' model is a key differentiator, as it can be more convenient and ensure better interoperability between components compared to sourcing controllers and PHYs from different vendors.
