Tightly integrated power management platform with a soft-IP wrapper around Analog / Mixed-Signal hard macros which generate all supply voltages and clock signals needed to run highly efficient SoCs in GlobalFoundries® 22FDX®. Running from only one supply voltage and reference clock, the IP generates its own internal supplies and references, and those needed to run the Racyics® ABX® Generator. With a simple digital interface, and a comprehensive register file for configuration, the IP simplifies chip power management and can be customized to a wide range of applications.
