Process/Voltage/Temperature Sensor (Supply voltage 2.5V/1.1V)

Overview

PVT Detector is a unique solution intended to continuously monitor IC status at several on-die locations. It is able to detect manufacturing process deviation, perform voltage and die temperature measurement. PVT Detector consists of PVT module, voltage/temperature sensor units and trimming units. PVT module is a calculation center that contains process detector units and is able to maintain up to 8 voltage/temperature sensor units.
