Case Study: InfoTM Microelectronics achieves first-pass silicon success and saves 6–8 staff-months with Synopsys USB IP

InfoTM Microelectronics - Customer Case Study

InfoTM Microelectronics faced an aggressive time-to-market window and needed to reduce development cost, project risk, and ensure IP availability in their target foundry process so their team could focus on differentiated SoC features. These constraints drove the company to select a third‑party USB solution for its mobile multimedia products.

They integrated Synopsys DesignWare USB 2.0 controller and PHY (40‑nm and 65‑nm) into smartphone, tablet/netbook and camera SoCs; Synopsys was chosen for silicon success, IP quality, ease of integration and a complete controller+PHY+verification solution. The result: 6–8 staff‑months saved, first‑pass silicon success, design goals for performance, power and area met, and achieved first‑to‑market.
