Synopsys demos DesignWare SuperSpeed USB 3.0 controller IP

MOUNTAIN VIEW, USA: Synopsys Inc. announced that its DesignWare SuperSpeed USB 3.0 digital controller IP has tested successfully for interoperability with Texas Instrument's (TI) SuperSpeed USB 3.0 transceiver. The companies will demonstrate the joint solution at the upcoming SuperSpeed USB Developers Conference in Tokyo, Japan on May 20-21, 2009.

The demonstration will show real-world SuperSpeed USB data transfer of high-definition video from a PC to a device using the Synopsys DesignWare SuperSpeed USB 3.0 digital controller and TI's SuperSpeed USB 3.0 transceiver.

Demonstrating proven multi-vendor interoperability accelerates the development of USB 3.0-enabled devices and allows consumers to benefit from the faster "sync-and-go" capability between PCs and the next generation of portable electronic devices. The DesignWare SuperSpeed USB 3.0 digital controller has also been successfully tested with the TI SuperSpeed USB 3.0 transceiver in the USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF) SuperSpeed Peripheral Interoperability Lab.

"Synopsys provides a robust, high-quality SuperSpeed USB 3.0 IP solution," said Dan Jensen, Connectivity Interface Solutions Manager at TI. "In addition to Synopsys' long history of delivering USB-compliant IP, these elements are important to helping us lower integration risk and ensure our transceiver interoperates with new USB 3.0 products and existing USB 2.0 devices."

"Synopsys is at the forefront of providing IP that enables leading semiconductor companies to incorporate the latest functionality into their advanced integrated circuits," said John Koeter, Vice president of Marketing for the Solutions Group at Synopsys. "By working closely with TI we are enabling designers to take advantage of SuperSpeed USB 3.0 data rates and quickly create innovative products with less risk and improved time-to market."
