Business Wire
Mentor Graphics Corporation (�Mentor�) (Nasdaq:MENT), a leader in
standards-based semiconductor intellectual property (IP), and
Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation today
announced the development and adoption of the Mentor Graphics�
High-Speed Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 physical layer (PHY) in
the SMIC 0.13um process. The PHY can be integrated with a USB
controller, serving as a bridge between the digital and modular
parts of the design. Mentor�s USB PHY (MUSBPHY) provides very low
power consumption and minimal die area, making it an ideal solution
for consumer products, such as digital cameras, game consoles,
set-top boxes, mobile devices, digital printers and scanners. This
�proven-in-silicon� USB 2.0 PHY implements a UTMI+ Level3 USB
Transceiver Macrocell Interface, and offers support for device,
host, embedded host and OTG USB controllers. The MUSBPHY provides
an optional integrated charge pump to reduce cost and board space
requirements. The MUSBPHY complements Mentor�s USB 2.0 Controller
portfolio and USB Software stack and, together, provides a complete
and fully integrated USB solution that enables significant time
savings and risk reduction for chip designers. �We selected Mentor
for the development of the USB High-Speed OTG PHY based on our
strong relationship with Mentor and Mentor�s silicon-proven history
of standards-compliant IP,� stated Paul Ouyang, vice president of
design services at SMIC. �Mentor provides a high level of
cooperation rarely seen with other IP vendors, including its
ability to provide our customers with fully compliant and highly
integrated IP solutions, so we anticipate great success with this
development.� �Mentor continues to�provide complete, pre-certified,
standards-based digital and mixed signal�IP solutions for USB and
other key applications," stated Bill Martin, Mentor Graphics IP
division general manager. "Our collaboration with SMIC serves to
minimize the risk of PHY and other IP by providing a total,
integrated solution for USB applications. Together, we believe we
provide huge productivity gains for companies focused on delivering
innovative consumer products with minimized risk." Fully Compliant
USB PHY Solution Mentor�s commitment to standards-compliance is
reflected in its entire USB portfolio. Providing one of the
industry�s lowest USB PHY power consumption (57mW in Rx mode, and
42mW in Tx mode) and minimal die areas (sub-1mm2 including the
Electro Static Discharge (ESD) and I/O structures), the MUSBPHY is
ideal for consumer electronics. Mentor�s USB High-Speed OTG
controller has been chosen as the �Golden Reference� by the USB-IF
and provides the USB-Implementer�s Forum (IF) with the OTG Protocol
Test board. Additionally, Mentor�s USB 1.1, USB 2.0 and USB OTG
devices and USB software stack have successfully achieved USB-IF
compliance. The MUSBPHY has been silicon proven and certified as an
Embedded Host, via the USB-IF organization. Mentor�s in-house test
labs provide characterization, interoperability and compliance
pre-testing based on SIG standards, and was used for the
development of the MUSBPHY technology. To find out more about
