Overview

The voltage monitor is a low power self-contained IP block specially designed to monitor voltage levels within the core logic voltage domains and provide accurate IR drop analysis. The measurement range is customized to suit each technology. The monitor IP can also measure analogue (IO) supply domains and is also well-suited to monitoring supply levels directly at critical circuit blocks and IR drops between supply pins and critical circuits. This In-Chip Sensing and PVT Monitoring IP is available as part of the Synopsys DesignWare® Foundation IP portfolio. It also forms the foundation of the new Synopsys Silicon Lifecycle Management (SLM) platform. SLM enables new levels of insight for both SoC providers as well as their customers to optimize operational activities at each stage of the device and system lifecycles from design to in-field.

Key features

  • Accurately measures core supply domain and IO voltages
  • Measurement of supply ranges up to 1.5V (with Prescaler)
  • Measurement of IR drops between supply pins and critical blocks
  • Digital interface for simplified chip integration
  • Multiple supply domain monitoring with single IP instance
  • Uses standard digital process requiring no extra process layers
  • Low power operation
