M31 MIPI IP for Mobile/Automotive Applications – M31 MIPI C-PHY/D-PHY Combo v1.2 IP
Overview
The MIPI D-PHY is a serial interface technology which is widely adopted in smartphones and other multimedia enabled mobile devices. To further improve throughput over bandwidth limited channel, the C-PHY is developed and is delivering 2.28 bits per symbol over three-wire trio. As a MIPI Alliance contributor and leading Interface IP provider, M31 offers silicon-proven, low-power and low-cost C-PHY/D-PHY Combo in various process nodes. Users are able to configure this Combo PHY into either D-PHY or C-PHY mode to support different applications. It is also compliant with the PPI interface, which allows seamless integration with either CIS-2 or DSI controller.
