It uses MIPI M-PHY version 6.0 for the physical layer and UniPro version 3.0 for the protocol. M-PHY version 6.0 introduces the new HS-GEAR6 mode, theoretically supporting an interface speed of up to 46.6Gbps per lane; with 2 lanes, UFS 5.0 can achieve approximately 10.8GB/s of effective read/write performance.


The  samples incorporate an in-house newly developed controller for UFS 5.0 and Kioxia’s 8th-generation BiCS FLASH and are available in capacities of 512GB and 1TB. The package measures 7.5 x 13 mm.
