SD Card v.3.0 / eMMC v.4.51 IP Family - Arasan Chip Systems, Inc.

Designed for embedded applications that require high performance, small form factor, and high storage capacity, eMMC provides the support for embedded mass storage memory on embedded host systems. The eMMC protocol simplifies the access to NAND flash memories (such as MLC) to the host by hiding the functional differences among suppliers. Compliant to the latest JEDEC eMMC specifications, Arasan’s eMMC IP supports power-on-booting without the upper level software driver. The explicit sleep mode allows the host to instruct the controller to directly enter the sleep mode. The interface supports interface voltage of either 1.8V or 3.3V.

Arasan Chip Systems, Inc.

CSI - Arasan Chip Systems, Inc.

Arasan provides a Total MIPI CSI-2 IP Solution supporting two options: MIPI CSI-2 v1.2 for D-PHY physical interface only, and MIPI CSI-2 v1.3 for the new MIPI C-PHY v1.0 and D-PHY v.1.1, v1.2, and a future v2.0. Arasan offers the C-PHY in a combination configuration that supports both C-PHY interfaces and D-PHY interfaces. Our implementation makes efficient use of the high frequency signally pins for a minimal overhead to support both physical interfaces.

Arasan Chip Systems, Inc.

Arasan Chip Systems, Inc.

A typical mobile device has many low-speed/bandwidth peripherals connected to the host processor, which include microphones, speakers, sensors and many others. There is a need for a standard bus that enables multiple audio channels, peer-peer communications and lower pin count on the host processor. The MIPI alliance has defined the SLIMbus specification which provides a standard, robust, scalable, low-power, high-speed, cost-effective, two wire multipurpose interface that supports a wide range of digital audio and control solutions for mobile terminals.

SD Card V.4.1 & UHS-II PHY

SD 4.1 Total Solution

Arasan Chip Systems, Inc.

SD 4.1 Total Solution - Arasan Chip Systems, Inc.

To meet the ever increasing data transfer rate in high end applications, such as professional broadcasting transmission or advanced high resolution display, the SD 4.1 specification calls out the maximum performance of 1.56 Gbps at UHS-II full duplex mode per lane or half duplex UHS-II at 3.16 Gbps. In real applications, due to the system overhead and different SD 4.1 device controller designs, the actual measured performance can vary dramatically from system to system. With the newly introduced ADMA 3, the OS driver is now able to issue multiple read or multiple write commands at once, without having to wait for the SD controller to complete one command at a time. Once the SD host controller has collected multiple commands, it will then manage and complete them without intervention from the host software drive. Thus, the UHS-II 1.56 Gbps interface can be more effectively utilized and maximize the system throughput. This feature can be very useful when running multithreaded applications where multiple applications are constantly updating their status or swapping their contents by writing or reading small chunk of data to or from the memory card.
