Cloud native EDA tools & pre-optimized hardware platforms
Synopsys offers a complete system-level memory interface IP portfolio for SoCs requiring an interface to one or a range of high-performance DDR5, DDR4, DDR3/3L, DDR2, LPDDR5X/5, LPDDR4/4X, LPDDR3, LPDDR2, HBM3, HBM2E and HBM2 SDRAMs or memory modules (DIMMs). Optimized for high data bandwidth, low power and enhanced signaling features, the silicon-proven Synopsys DDR Memory Interface IP products include a choice of scalable digital controllers with Inline Memory Encryption (IME) Security Module, an integrated hard macro or configurable PHY delivering memory system performance of up to 8.5Gbps, and verification IP.
Synopsys' DDR and LPDDR PHYs are supportd by Synopsys' unique Synopsys DDR PHY Compiler for determining the area and power of a customer-specific configuration.
Synopsys DDR5/4, LPDDR5X/5/4/4X Controllers, and Enhanced Universal DDR Memory and Protocol Controller IP feature a DFI-compliant interface, low latency and low gate count while offering high bandwidth. Optional market-specific features like AMBA CHI, AXI/4 AXI Quality of Service (QoS) and advanced Reliability, Availability and Serviceability (RAS) features allow you to match the area and capabilities of the controllers to your needs. The Synopsys Inline Memory Encryption (IME) Security Module seamlessly integrates with Synopsys DDR and LPDDR controllers to provide confidentiality and data protection.
