Cadence Design Systems has released design IP (IP) and verification IP (VIP) that supports the new Mobile PCI Express (M-PCIe) specification, for developing products with both PC-level performance and extended battery life.
M-PCIe helps boost mobile device performance by delivering highly scalable I/O functionality, enabling the migration of business apps to smartphones and tablets as they take on the role of primary computing devices,” said Al Yanes, Chairman and President, PCI-SIG.
“We are delighted that Cadence is enabling SoC developers to rapidly adopt M-PCIe by delivering IP and VIP products supporting this standard.”
These new solution enable the PCI Express architecture to operate over the MIPI M-PHY physical layer technology for low-power mobile devices including thin laptops, tablets and smartphones.
“Mobile PCI Express is foundational to developing the next generation of mobile devices,” said Martin Lund, Senior Vice President, SoC Realisation Group, Cadence.
“By providing the IP and VIP supporting the newly minted specifications, customers can now get their cool, new products to market much faster.”
