Process/Voltage/Temperature Sensor (Supply voltage 3.3V/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 as a calculation center for voltage and temperature measurements with Process detector units for Low VT, Standard VT and High VT transistors, and voltage/temperature sensor units.
PVT module is able to maintain up to 8 external voltage/ temperature sensor units of two types in any variations: for Core voltage measurement range from 0.8V to 1.35V and for IO voltage measurement range from 2.4V÷3.7V.
