Leading the Charge: Cadence Announces New Verification IP for UFS 3.0, CoaxPress, and HyperRAM

Today, Cadence announced three new VIPs, two of which are industry-firsts! Cadence revealed the first available VIP for CoaXPress for high-speed imaging and the first available VIP for HyperRAM high-speed memory. We also unveiled a new JEDEC Universal Flash Storage 3.0 (UFS) VIP. Together, these three new VIPs allow early-adopters to leap off the starting line in the race to create new, incredible SoCs and IPs incorporating these revolutionary new technologies.

CoaXPress is great for imaging technology needs. With the rise of automated driving technology, lightning-fast transfer and analysis of videos and images is more important than ever—and with speeds of up to 6.25 Gbit/s, CoaXPress is uniquely positioned to fill that need. Combine that with Cadence’s TripleCheck technology, and you’ve got a VIP worth integrating into your next project.

HyperRAM is a HyperBus-based read performance memory with speeds of up to 333 MB/s. Applications including automotive, industrial, and consumer applications that focus on a small footprint are a great fit for HyperRAM VIP.

The UFS 3.0 spec doubles the throughput bandwidth from 1.3 GB/s (in the old spec) to 2.6 GB/s. This’ll be a big help to the rapidly growing need for bandwidth and low-power SoCs—for both automotive and mobile designs. And don’t worry—this VIP still utilizes the Cadence TripleCheck technology you know and love.
