Overview

Silicon Creations Voltage/Temperature sensors are fully-integrated allowing monitoring of temperature and supply voltage levels at up to 16 points on the chip. Both BJT-based and resistor-based sensors are available. Our engineers can guide you in understanding the tradeoffs between these two options to select the best solution for your system.

Availability

Both RT and BJT sensors available at TSMC 2n, 3n, 4/5n, 6/7n, 12/16n, 22n, 28n.

Key features

  • BJT sensors can be used uncalibrated.
  • Resistor (“RT”) based sensors require calibration, use easily routed digital signals, not analog.
  • Temperature measurement accuracy better than:
    • Calibrated = ±1.2°C (2-points), ±2.5°C (1-point, BJT), ±5°C (1-point, RT)
    • Uncalibrated = ±5.0°C (BJT sensors only)
  • Supply voltage measurement supports local and remote measurement of supply voltage and VSS differential.
  • Supply voltage uncalibrated measurement accuracy ±2.5% up to 2.27M Samples/sec and ±1.5% up to 110k Samples/sec
  • RTL controller with APB interface
  • Low area and power
