SmartDV’s MIPI RFFE SPI Slave IP is a silicon-proven, dual-protocol RF front-end interface solution purpose-built for SoC designs requiring versatile slave-side connectivity across both RFFE and SPI interfaces in a single, unified IP core. Fully compliant with MIPI RFFE v3.2 and SPI Block Guide V04.01, it delivers complete slave functionality across both protocols, enabling RF front-end components and peripheral devices to interface seamlessly with a wide range of host controller types in 5G mobile, IoT, automotive, and industrial applications.
Designed for RF subsystem designs where both RFFE and SPI host connectivity is required, the IP combines a full-featured RFFE slave with a comprehensive SPI slave implementation. Its RFFE implementation supports Timed and Mappable Triggers, Extended Frequency Range up to 52 MHz, Normal and Secondary operation modes, Half-Speed Data Response, and a comprehensive error detection suite, while its SPI implementation covers 8-bit and 16-bit addressing and both single and burst transfer modes for flexible peripheral integration.
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 dual-protocol architecture and clean host interface enable fast integration and confident design bring-up across a wide range of process nodes and target applications.
