SmartDV’s GPIO Controller IP is a silicon-proven, fully featured General Purpose Input/Output solution purpose-built for SoC designs requiring flexible, configurable digital I/O connectivity across embedded, IoT, automotive, and industrial applications. Compliant with standard GPIO protocol conventions, it delivers complete GPIO functionality with dynamic per-pin programming, supporting configurations from 1 to 32 bits for flexible integration across a wide range of SoC pin count requirements.
Designed for the practical integration requirements of modern embedded SoC designs, the IP supports dynamic programming of each GPIO pin as input or output, per-pin configurable drive strength, individually enabled or disabled pull-up and pull-down resistors, and per-pin trigger control as level or edge sensitive with active low or active high polarity selection. Its optional interrupt generation with configurable edge detection on rising or falling edges gives embedded SoC teams a production-tested, fully flexible GPIO controller suited for sensor interfacing, control signaling, and general-purpose digital I/O across the broadest range of embedded and IoT applications.
Built for design flexibility and silicon efficiency, the IP core is highly configurable for both ASIC and FPGA implementations, with a strong focus on area optimization, power management, and peak performance. Its parameterized pin count architecture and clean host interface enable fast integration and confident design bring-up across a wide range of process nodes and target applications.
