Dolphin Integration Announces a complete Panoply of Memories and Standard Cells, which uniquely offer Dual Voltage capability for the 180 nm process

Meylan, France – September 06, 2010. Dolphin Integration is the only provider to address the dynamic power consumption challenge at the architectural level with the introduction of a complete Panoply of Memories and Standard Cells, which uniquely offer Dual Voltage capability for the 180 nm process.

Dynamic power consumption being proportional to power supply, the natural method to improve the performance of power sensitive designs is to integrate a multiple voltage architecture. Dolphin Integration is the partner for such specific power optimized implementations. Depending on your needs, Dolphin Integration’s standard cell libraries and memories can be delivered with characterizations for 1.8 V, 1.1 V or both voltages.

Customers’ Benchmark results versus alternative solutions demonstrate that this Panoply enables dividing dynamic power consumption by:

• Up to 4 when operating at nominal voltage
• Up to 7 when operating at low voltageThe Ultra Low Power Panoply includes:
• The Pluton architecture for Single Port RAM
• The Mars architecture for Dual Port RAM
• The patented Cassiopeia architecture for Metal programmable ROM
• The ultra high density standard cell library SESAME uHD-BTF DV

More information on the key features and performances of the Ultra Low Power Panoply is available in the brochure:
