SmartDV’s MIPI I3C SMaster IP is a silicon-proven, dual-role solution compliant with the MIPI I3C v1.2 specification, supporting both Master and Slave functionalities in a single, integrated IP core. Ideal for complex SoC designs in mobile, automotive, and IoT applications, the SMaster IP enables seamless role-switching, multi-controller environments, and advanced communication features like in-band interrupts, hot-join, dynamic address assignment, and high data rates.
Designed for flexibility, the IP core is highly configurable to meet specific design requirements, supporting both ASIC and FPGA implementations while optimizing for area, power, and performance. It simplifies integration in SoCs that require hybrid controller and peripheral capabilities, reducing silicon footprint and improving connectivity efficiency. Optional support for I3C HCI (Host Controller Interface) streamlines software integration and enhances overall system flexibility.
