Arasan Chip Systems, a provider of Total IP for automotive SoC's has announced that their eMMC Total IP which includes the eMMC Controller IP and the eMMC PHY IP have achieved the Automotive Safety Integrity Level B, the architectural metrics SPFM (Single Point Fault Metric) and LFM (Latent Fault Metric) certification.

As a result, customers will now be able to create ISO 26262-compliant SoCs for ADAS and autonomous driving applications.

Arasan's eMMC controller is widely used in automotive, navigation, and car entertainment applications such as 3D maps, drive recorder, satellite radio, autonomous driving OS and Apps, telemetric and traffic monitoring.

Arasan eMMC 5.1 Total IP is designed in-house and comes with cutting-edge safety features that greatly exceed current industry norms while keeping JEDEC compatibility. It features the HS400 high speed interface timing mode of up to 400 MB/s data rate, with ‘command queuing’ - making the data transfers highly efficient by offloading the software overhead into the controller. The eMMC 5.1 further improves the reliability of operation by utilizing an "enhanced strobe" at the PHY layer.

The eMMC total IP portfolio includes all the versions with silicon proven nodes down to 5nm.

Arasan also offers a complete suite of MIPI IP including the CSI IP for Camera, DSI IP for Display along with its integrated C-PHY IP and D-PHY IP for automotive applications.
