Mentor Graphics Corporation (Nasdaq:MENT), a leader in
standards-based semiconductor intellectual property (IP), today
announced the successful certification of its high-speed Universal
Serial Bus (USB) On-The-Go (OTG) controller at the recent USB
Implementers Forum (USB-IF) Compliance Workshop in Tokyo, Japan,
April 3-7, 2005. This was the first event at which the USB-IF has
recognized standard compliance for high-speed USB 2.0 OTG, which
provides high bandwidth communications in consumer products, such
as digital cameras, game consoles, set-top boxes, digital printers
and scanners. Mentor Graphics submitted a full-custom platform with
an integrated high-speed USB OTG controller, paired with a USB3500
Hi-Speed USB Physical Layer Interface (PHY) from SMSC, for the
compliance test. The platform, running the Linux operating system,
provided full support for USB OTG, including host and peripheral
operation as well as support for the Host Negotiation (HNP) and
Session Request (SRP) Protocols. Continued demand for USB
applications is evident with the development of new consumer
connectivity products. According to Venture Development
Corporation's (VDC) developer survey results published in July 2004
as part of the 2004 Embedded Software Strategic Market Intelligence
Program, adoption of USB in device development is expected to
increase from 29.6% to 47.2% by 2006. Reliable IP Implementation
for First-Pass Success Mentor's USB OTG controller combined with a
reliable third-party PHY, such as SMSC's USB3500, enables quick,
proven integration, and design reuse benefits, for a complete USB
OTG solution. "We were excited to provide our PHY to Mentor's host
controller for this new High-Speed USB On-The-Go compliance test,"
stated Steve Nelson, vice president of marketing, Connectivity
Solutions at SMSC. "Mentor is one of the recognized leaders in USB
On-The-Go IP and our certification success establishes us to be on
the cutting-edge of this newest standard for dynamic consumer
applications." "With yet another successful product certification,
Mentor continues to provide complete, low-risk standards-based IP
solutions for USB and other key applications," stated Michael
Kaskowitz, Mentor Graphics IP division general manager and
president of the VSI Alliance. "Our collaboration with SMSC will
help to accelerate adoption of USB On-The-Go. Together we provide
huge gains to companies focused on delivering innovative consumer
products with minimized risk using our pre-certified IP and PHY
solutions." Mentor USB High-Speed OTG Features: Mentor's OTG core
is a versatile controller IP solution for USB On-The-Go that
operates equally well as a simple peripheral device or as the host
in a sophisticated USB network. As a host, it supports peripheral
devices of all speeds and, as a peripheral, it communicates at
either high-speed (480Mbps) or full speed (12Mbps) when connected
to legacy host computers. Other key features include: -- Compliant
with the On-The-Go supplement to the USB 2.0 specification --
Compliant with USB 2.0 standard for high-speed devices -- Supports
both Session Request Protocol (SRP) and Host Negotiation Protocol
(HNP) -- UTMI+ Level 2 interface is provided for connecting to a
suitable USB high-/full-speed transceiver, such as the SMSC GT3500
-- Configurable for up to 15 additional Transmit endpoints and up
to 15 additional Receive endpoints -- 32-bit AMBA AHB-compatible
CPU interface, supporting multi-layer operations Mentor Graphics
