FAIRCHILD ACHIEVES SUCCESS WITH DESIGNWARE USB 2.0

摘要

Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPS), Mountain View, Calif., a world leader in software and IP for semiconductor design, verification and manufacturing, has announced that Fairchild Semiconductor (Fairchild) has achieved first-pass silicon success for its FUSB2500 UTMI+ Low-Pin Interface (ULPI) USB On-The-Go (OTG) transceiver chip utilizing Synopsys' DesignWare USB 2.0 nanoPHY IP. Fairchild selected Synopsys' silicon-proven DesignWare IP because it was low in power and area and offered impressive technical features, including auto-detect functionality and ULPI interface. In addition, the tunability of the PHY enabled Fairchild to easily conduct post-silicon adjustments without incurring the cost of a metal respin.
