Overview
The 3.3V 32kHz Oscillators library provides a 32kHz real time clock oscillator macro I/O cell. An adapter cell is included to utilize this oscillator with libraries based on the 1.8V pad ring bus structure.
These 22nm libraries are available in inline and staggered CUP wire bond implementations with a flip chip option.
To utilize these cells in the pad ring, an additional library is required – 3.3V Support: Power. That library contains the DVDD/DVSS power cells necessary for ESD protection, the POC and VREF cells, and a rail splitter to isolate the oscillator in its own power domain as recommended. It also contains an input-only buffer, isolated analog I/O, and a full complement of power cells along with corner and spacer cells to assemble a complete pad ring by abutment. The rail splitter allows multiple power domains to be isolated in the same pad ring while maintaining continuous VDD/VSS for robust ESD protection.

In this paper, we present a flexible ring oscillator IP designed for a 40nm CMOS technology, whose oscillation frequency can be chosen from 200kHz to 20MHz. It was developed using a new design approach, in which analog IPs are designed from scratch to be flexible, employing modular blocks that can be easily customized. The IP is silicon proven. It works with a supply voltage of 1.2V and features 5% frequency accuracy, occupying an area of 0.0022mm2.
This article reviews the functional-safety attributes of Classical CAN and CAN FD, then explains how CAN XL preserves and extends them. It also discusses higher-layer safety protocols, fault-tolerant CAN XL controller implementations, and CANsec, the CAN XL security extension inspired by the MACsec model. Finally, it highlights how the CAST CAN XL controller IP and CANsec acceleration IP can support the efficient deployment of safety- and security-capable in-vehicle networks.
