Overview
A 2Gbps SLVS Tranceiver in TSMC 28nm
This 1.8V SLVS transceiver is a high-performance, low-power I/O solution optimized for TSMCs 28nm process. Designed with 1.8V thick oxide devices and a standard low-voltage core interface at 0.8V, this transceiver ensures robust operation across a wide temperature range (-40°C to 125°C). Supporting high-speed differential signaling up to 2Gbps, it delivers ex- ceptional signal integrity with low jitter and precise eye diagrams. With built-in ESD protection (+2kV HBM, +500V CDM) and on-die termination options, this SLVS I/O is ideal for high-reliability applications requiring power efficiency and strong noise immunity. Whether used in high-speed data transfer, imaging systems, or communication interfaces, Certus Semiconductors SLVS solution offers the performance and reliability needed for next-generation designs.

A Low-Leakage Digital Foundation for SkyWater 90nm SoCs: Introducing Certus’ Standard Cell Library
As semiconductor designs continue to diversify, many successful products are not chasing the most advanced process nodes. Instead, they prioritize power efficiency, reliability, and long-term availability.
Field Induced CDM Explained
Integrated circuits are commonly tested for ESD robustness with 2 tests, Human Body Model (HBM) and Charged Device Model (CDM). Most engineers quickly grasp the procedure for HBM, but the CDM test is often poorly understood. This is unfortunate, because a large fraction of the ESD failures experienced in modern board assembly operations are CDM type failures. This article will describe the events which occur during a CDM test conducted using the widely accepted field induced CDM (FCDM) test.
