Silvaco Expands Silicon IP Portfolio with Production-Ready MIPI PHY Solutions

  • Silvaco announced the immediate availability of Mixel MIPI 'Production Ready Offerings' (PRO IP) on March 10, 2026.
  • The portfolio includes MIPI PHY (D-PHY, C-PHY, M-PHY) and multi-standard SerDes IP, supporting mobile and adjacent markets like automotive, VR/AR, IoT, and wearables.
  • Mixel's MIPI PHY IP offers patented implementations like D-PHY RX+, reducing area by 35% and leakage power by 50% in production testing.
  • The IP solutions are silicon-proven in 9 foundries and 12 nodes, from 180nm down to 5nm.

Silvaco’s move strengthens its position in the semiconductor IP market by expanding its offerings in high-performance connectivity solutions. The acquisition of Mixel and the launch of these production-ready IP solutions align with the industry’s shift toward advanced process nodes and high-growth applications. This strategic expansion could enhance Silvaco’s competitive edge in the EDA and semiconductor design sectors.
