DesignWare® IP for Data Center and Network Infrastructure

Market Overview
The increased bandwidth demand for data center and network infrastructure resources is creating high growth opportunities in these markets. As next generation systems move towards multi-terabit data processing, it is driving the need for high performance processing in server farms. Furthermore, the continuing rise of internet traffic is resulting in the development of high-throughput data and telecommunications network systems.

Designers building integrated circuits (ICs) for these applications need a combination of high performance and power efficient IP solutions to help deliver total system throughput and meet the quality-of-service requirements.

DesignWare IP for Data Center and Network Infrastructure
Synopsys provides a comprehensive portfolio of high quality IP that enables designers to develop SoCs for applications such as server blades, storage networks and Core/Edge networks. The high performance DesignWare IP solutions consisting of digital controllers, mixed-signal PHYs and verification IP help designers deploy power efficient ICs with low risk and improved time-to-market.

IP Highlights

  • High-performance IP such as PCI Express 2.0 operating at 5.0 Gbps, and DDR IP operating at speeds up to 1600 Mbps
  • Multi-lane mixed-signal PHYs and digital controllers reduce the bandwidth bottleneck from the system to the I/O
  • Implements advanced low power features and methodologies
  • Provides optimal quality of service features such as parity and error control checking
  • Silicon proven, shipping in volume
