Overview

This macro-cell is a flexible general purpose oscillator core designed for TSMC 40nm CRN40LP CMOS technology. This IP can be customized upon request.

The customized IP oscillates at a specific frequency selected between 200kHz and 20MHz, and consumes a proportional quiescent current (typ. 1.8μA to 13μA). An external 1.3μA bias current is required for proper operation, this can be implemented with ChipusCM1218hl voltage & current reference IP. A 4-bit digital bus allows frequency calibration against process variations with +/- 2.5% precision.

The core is easily retargeted to any other CMOS technology due to its MOSFET-only oscillator architecture.

A Flexible 200kHz-20MHz Ring Oscillator in a 40nm CMOS Technology

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.

From Classical CAN and CAN FD to CAN XL: Functional Safety and Security for Next-Generation In-Vehicle Communication

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.
