Mobiveil and Avery Design Systems partner to provide SoC designers a fully verified and compliant PCIe 5.0 IP solution

Mobiveil provides Design IP and Avery Design provides Verification IP for the latest PCIe 5.0 specification

MILPITAS, CALIF. –– June 05, 2018 –– Mobiveil, Inc. today announced that it is
partnering with Avery Design Systems to deliver a complete PCIe 5.0 IP solution for SoC
designers needing a fully verified and compliant PCIe 5.0 interface solution for their designs.
Mobiveil will provide root complex, endpoint, and switch configurations of controller IP with
SR·IOV and ARI Support. Avery Design Systems will provide its comprehensive PCI-Xactor
Verification IP solution portfolio.

About PCIe 5.0 Specification

PCIe 5.0 technology is the next generation in the Peripheral Component Interconnect Express
standard defined by the PCI-SIG (PCI Special Interest Group). Its 32GT/s (Giga transfers per
second) bandwidth will set the standard for speed targeting high performance applications such
as artificial intelligence, machine learning, gaming, visual computing, storage and networking.
The specification is slated for completion in 2019. PCIe 5.0 interface technology is expected to
enableNVMe SSDs for enterprise and data centers to leverage the scalability of PCIe architecture
both in higher bandwidth and lower latency

“Verification is often cited as demanding a large proportion of effort for any new design,”
said Chris Browy, SVP of WW Sales & Marketing at Avery. Our PCIe VIP implements a
complete set of root complex, endpoint, switch, and SR-IOV models, protocol checkers, and
compliance test suites utilizing a truly flexible and open architecture based on a 100 percent
native System Verilog and UVM implementation to ensure an SoC designers PCIe 5.0 interface
meets specification.”

“By this collaboration between PCIe controller Design IP and Verification IP providers,
SoC designers can have a total plug and play solution for adding PCIe 5.0 interface to their SoC
designs, thus significantly reducing their time to market,” said Ravi Thummarukudy, Mobiveil
CEO. Leveraging the intellectual property provided by these companies with specification
compliant IP, designers can be assured of first-time success for the PCIe 5.0 interface in their
designs.”
