The MIPI Alliance, an international organization that develops interface specifications for mobile and mobile-influenced industries, today announced a major update to its MIPI M-PHY physical-layer interface for connecting the latest generation of flash memory-based storage and other high data rate applications in advanced 5G smartphones, wearables, PCs, industrial IoT, and automobiles. Version 5.0 of the M-PHY interface adds a fifth gear—"High Speed Gear 5" (HS-G5) at 23.32 Gigabits per second (Gbps)—enabling engineers to double the potential data rate per lane compared with the previous specification. M-PHY v5.0 also responds to a range of other ecosystem requirements for connecting flash memory storage, such as ongoing innovation of the JEDEC Universal Flash Storage (UFS) standard.

To increase the resiliency of IoT devices from cyber-attacks, IoT manufacturers need to have a security-first approach and combine the latest updates and techniques, Sunil Cheruvu, Co-Chair of Trusted Computing Group’s (TCG) Internet of Things Work Group, said today.

Speaking at the IoT Device Security Conference, Cheruvu stressed the importance of preparing the best response to inevitable cyberattacks. With the growth in the frequency and complexity of attacks, it is essential that devices are safe and uncompromised. Security must be a priority for all, not just when a disaster happens.

In March of 2020, Ethernet Alliance members were eagerly anticipating OFC 2020 in San Diego, Calif. 17 member companies gathered together at Teledyne LeCroy to build out the year’s interoperability demo. Company allegiances and rivalries were set aside for the greater good as we worked to create a working display of all things Ethernet. Everything was coming together nicely and we were ready to go…right up until we suddenly weren’t.
