Overview

The subLVDS library provides a subLVDS driver, receiver, and
temperature stable voltage reference capable of supporting 16 drivers
operating at data rates up to 1600 Mbps. The pad set includes a full
complement of power, spacer, and adapter cells to assemble a
complete pad ring by abutment. An included rail splitter allows
isolated subLVDS domains to be placed in the same pad ring with
other power domains while maintaining continuous VDD/VSS in the
pad ring for robust ESD protection.

Key features

  • Input receive sensitivity of 50mV peak differential (without hysteresis)
  • Common mode range from 0.4V to 1.6V (limited by Power Supply)
  • Powered by 1.8V I/O and 1.1V core supplies
  • Power consumption: 3.4 mW max @ 800 MHz

What’s Included?

  • a. Physical abstract in LEF format (.lef)
  • b. Timing models in Synopsys Liberty formats (.lib and .db)
  • c. Calibre compatible LVS netlist in CDL format (.cdl)
  • d. GDSII stream (.gds)
  • e. Behavioral Verilog (.v)

Provider

Aragio Solutions
HQ: USA
Aragio is a limited liability corporation (LLC) with headquarters in Plano, Texas. The Company is a full-service provider of semiconductor intellectual property (IP) for integrated circuit (IC) design. Aragio focuses on design solutions for input/output (I/O) system interface cells used for package interconnect. Full I/O library solutions, with robust electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, are provided for complex integrated circuit padring designs. Aragio serves a very niche market for I/O libraries within the semiconductor industry. The company provides uniform I/O pad sets for a wide range of applications, semiconductor foundries and technologies. It is significant that all IP is owned by Aragio Solutions and nearly all IP developed since the company was formed in 2003 is still in demand and will continue to be in demand for the next decade. As a recognized world leader, Aragio provides its services to numerous clients across Southeast Asia, China, Japan, Europe, and North America.

Integrating Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) on Arty-Z7

Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is moving from theory to engineering reality. With NIST-standardized algorithms ML-KEM (FIPS 203) and ML-DSA (FIPS 204) now finalized, FPGA developers face a practical challenge: How to integrate these algorithms efficiently on resource-constrained hardware?

From I2C to I3C: Evolution of Two-Wire Communication in Embedded Systems

The I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) Bus invented in 1980 by Philips Semiconductors (NXP Semiconductors today) was a massive step forward in simplifying communications in embedded systems. It is a simple two-wire interface for synchronous, multi-master/multi-slave, single ended serial communication. Fast forward 45 years to today and it is still widely used for attaching low speed peripheral Integrated Circuits (ICs), processors and microcontrollers. But silicon today has changed...
