Standard Cells reducing leakage 40 to 60 times at 90 and 65 nm
Meylan, France - March 3rd, 2011
The SESAME BIV (Battery Interface Voltage) library of Standard Cells with its Flip-Flop patented for Low Voltage operation, is the winners' choice to in-house libraries for low-power applications.
SESAME BIV can be applied for two different and complementary purposes:
- Direct Battery supply: using the SESAME BIV for synthesizing small logic blocks directly connected to the battery with no need for an intermediate regulator.
- Low Leakage islet: SESAME BIV is superior for synthesizing an always-on logic block - such as Real Time Clocks - by maintaining the leakage to a level lower than HVt-based libraries.
Highlights
- Direct battery supply
- Functional from 1.1 V up to 3.6 V thanks to patented flip flops
- Simple implementation: islets directly powered by the external battery
- No need for dedicated regulator
- Low Leakage features
- Leakage reduction of 40 to 60 times in typical process
- Possibility to remove regulators and their leakage
- Consistent kit for a straightforward design-in
- Isolation cells
- Ultra Low Leakage Level Shifters
- Custom PVT support
- Optimal Design for Yield
- Design methodology ensuring High-Yield circuits despite Mismatch
- Specification of OCV margins
Already celebrated at 180 nm and 130 nm SESAME BIV is being released for 90 nm and 65 nm designs.
