CoreI3C


CoreI3C is a standards-based MIPI® I3C controller IP designed to provide high-performance communication between processors, controllers, sensors, and peripheral devices in FPGA-based systems. The core supports I3C bus operation while maintaining backward compatibility with legacy I²C devices, enabling seamless migration to next-generation sensor and control networks. The IP delivers higher bandwidth, lower pin count, and improved power efficiency compared to traditional I²C implementations. CoreI3C supports dynamic device management, in-band interrupts, dynamic address assignment, and efficient control of multiple peripheral devices through a unified serial interface. The architecture provides robust bus management capabilities while simplifying system integration and reducing board-level complexity. Designed for embedded control, sensor aggregation, system management, and industrial applications, CoreI3C enables efficient communication with intelligent sensors and peripherals while supporting modern MIPI I3C protocol features. Its flexible interface architecture and FPGA-friendly implementation make it an ideal solution for applications requiring scalable, low-latency, and power-efficient system connectivity.
