Presentation Sheet

1PRFile BDS Aura generator TSMC 180 nm G

PRELIMINARY

 

High Speed

High Density

Part of Symphonie Panoply

 

 

Fabless and Integrators of SoCs targeting the 180 nm G process can take advantage of Dolphin Integration’s Panoply enabling the generation of instances from 1 bit up to 1024 kbits. The Panoply includes:

  • Synthetisable instances with the High Density Standard Cell Library, SESAME uHD-BTF.
  • Generated instances with the 1PRFile Aura architecture optimized for high speed and density for medium capacities.
  • Generated instances with the SPRAM Pluton architecture optimized for low dynamic power and density for largest capacities.
  • Generated instances with the Dual metal programmable dROMet Cassiopeia optimized for low dynamic power and density.

For speed optimized applications like high speed consumer (gaming or DTV for example) and some mobile devices, General purpose Silicon IPs do not satisfy the needs of processors. To provide a solution for these applications, Dolphin Integration proposes the One Port Register File Aura architecture (1RW) optimized for high speed and high density. The Aura generator is available at a voltage of 1.8 V +/-10%.
The availability of two advanced releases of Aura is pending:

  • A Dual Voltage variant.
  • A Dual Port variant.
