Overview

The agileTSENSE_A GP Temperature Sensor is a traditional ΔVBE temperature sensor that amplifies the difference between two VBE voltages, and converts the result to a single-ended signal. This temperature sensor can be used with the agileADC in order to provide a digital output with an overall relative accuracy of +/-0.25°C. On modern SoCs, thermal management is critical for detection of security attacks and optimization of power, performance and area.

Agile Analog designs are based on tried and tested architectures to ensure reliability and functionality. Our design methodology is programmatic, systematic and repeatable leading to analog IP that is more verifiable, more robust and more reliable. Our methodology also allows us to quickly re-target our IP to different process options. We support all the major foundries including TSMC, GlobalFoundries, Intel Foundry, Samsung Foundry, UMC and Other Foundries.

Understanding security certification and how analog IP can help

This Agile Analog blog post outlines the security certification process and the impact of implementing analog anti-tamper solutions. With new security measures such as the EU’s Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) regulations becoming fully enforced in 2027, there is increasing interest in security certification and the analog IP that companies can use to detect and prevent security attacks.

Providing protection against EMFI attacks

This Agile Analog blog post is focused on describing the dangers of Electromagnetic Fault Injection (EMFI) attacks and outlining the importance of EMFI sensors that are designed to provide protection.

Power Management for Internet of Things (IoT) System on a Chip (SoC) Development

There are many factors that must be considered when developing a custom System on a Chip (SoC) for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Chief among these are the power management circuits on the die. Vidatronic offers this white paper to discuss these considerations and all of the various circuit blocks that can be found in this application. Vidatronic IP solutions are discussed and the benefits they bring to IoT SoC designers.
