HDMI, LVDS, RF and Analog Pads Library in 45nm / 40nm

Overview

A 1.0V to 5V Analog IO Library that includes an HDMI, LVDS, and Analog/RF Low Capacitance pad set in 45nm/40nm HPM processes.

This library is a collection of analog-only IO and Power/Ground pads, including ESD. The target applications are high-performance analog interfaces, including HDMI, RF, LVDS, basic analog, and other applications. The pads include several specialty features: fail-safe, low capacitance, high ESD protection, and IEC robustness. The IOs are designed to trigger and protect interfaces during Electrical Overstress (EOS) events during normal operation. A key feature of the library is the extremely small footprint of the inline IO set, only 2.2um bigger than the bond pad itself. Capacitance can range from <150fF to 250fF and is scalable based on the customers’ needs between ESD robustness and capacitive loading.
