LPDDR54 PHY

Overview
Consumer mobile and edge devices are processing large amounts of data in today’s applications, ranging from video processing, mobile gaming, to AI-based image recognition. As a result of these advancements, the memory sub-system plays a crucial role in the overall performance.
​
The TSS LPDDR54 PHY utilizes state-of-the-art architecture to maximize timing and voltage margins over process, voltage and temperature variations, while minimizing interruption to data traffic.
​
Built-in power management logic and advanced PLL design allows aggressive power state management and optimal system power usage.
At the system level, the LPDDR54 OPHY was designed with minimal package substrate layer and PCB layer count in mind. This enables the integration of a LPDDR memory sub-system solution in cost sensitive applications, such as consumer edge devices, digital set-top-box and TV, SSD controllers, and application processors.
