Overview

The TS_IREF_88uA_X8 is a current reference biasing circuit which provides a sink/source ZTAT (zero-toabsolute temperature) temperature-independent current from 250nA up to 88μA and supplied with 3.3V. As shown in Figure 1, the current reference circuit consists of a bandgap circuit generating a ZTAT voltage 𝑉𝐵𝐺 and by using an OTA, an NMOS transistor, and a trimmed P-doped poly resistor (temperature independent), a ZTAT current can be generated and copied using current mirrors. The bandgap voltage 𝑉𝐵𝐺 is also provided as an output in case it is needed as a reference voltage. Digital trimming is available for the generated current through trimming bits. The current reference also provides an Enable signal to control whether to turn on or shutdown the bandgap circuit and consequently the biasing circuit.

Learn more about Voltage Reference IP core

A scalable, shader-programmable vector graphics GPU core for low-power MCUs

To meet the growing graphics demands, the industry is shifting toward scalable, shader programmable architectures. Unlike fixed-function graphics accelerators, shader programmable GPUs offer the flexibility required to target diverse market segments and at the same time ensure software portability and maintainability. Furthermore, adopting platform-independent stacks based on industry standards allows accelerating time-to market by developing applications on standard PC platforms before deployment to target hardware. TES Electronic Solutions in Germany addresses these challenges with the D/AVE NX GPU core. Engineered specifically for resource-constrained environments, it supports OpenGL ES 2.0 shader programmability with selected 3.x and vector graphics extensions.
