Case Study: Euphonic Technologies achieves first-pass silicon success with Synopsys DesignWare PCI Express IP

Euphonic Technologies - Customer Case Study

Euphonic Technologies, developer of the high-performance EGC601 embedded graphics controller for industrial imaging and display applications, needed a high-quality PCI Express solution to meet demanding power, feature and performance targets. Key challenges included sourcing an eight‑lane mixed‑signal PCIe PHY and digital controllers, validating the hardware on an FPGA platform, and minimizing integration risk.

Euphonic selected Synopsys DesignWare IP — a low‑power PHY plus synthesizable Endpoint, Root Port and Dual‑Mode controllers — providing a single-vendor, silicon‑proven solution with FPGA validation support and on‑chip diagnostics. The result was first‑pass silicon success, reduced integration risk, compliance with power and performance requirements, and strong technical support that positioned Euphonic to continue using DesignWare IP.
