    How do i run corners using scripts? need explanation

    Re: corner sim using scripts I often use ocean scripts to do corner analysis. Just example: ;icc1_proc is called by every corner case procedure(icc1_proc(mmodel ttemp) fprintf(p "temperature is %s" ttemp) newline(p) fprintf(p "models is...

    My chip is burned down, need your help!

    1. Check layout of your pcb-board. Improper layout can lead to voltage or current spikes. 2. Check inductor for saturation. 3. Check temperature of chip and other components 4. Find latch-up current for every pin of your chip. It must be at least 100 mA 5. Ask your foundry results of OLT...

    How to provide variable duty circle for LED brightness contr

    ledbrightness.c These two IC use different approaches for PWM. 1. TPS61042 enables external PWM. Let we set LED current to I0 value without using PWM. Now we apply signal to CTRL pin with frequency 100 Hz and duty cycle 50%. It means that half time IC will be disabled and LED current will be...

    Why is LDMOS transistors p-base formed by lateral diffusion

    Re: about LDMOS Vertical DMOS in IC technology forms with buried layer, that is main current flows through base in vertical direction, then by means of buried layer current flows horizontal into drain. In horizontal DMOS the resistance of bulk into vertical direction too large and main...

    LAyout design rule Questions

    During manufacturing wafer there are some superposition error between masks for different layers. These rules are fixed such errors. If R5 to make less specified value its possible shorts between source and drain. For R17 may be poor contact to active area.

    What is the Lex & Yacc tool ?

    Re: Lex & Yacc There is a pure windows port Flex & Bison. Its a part of BisonFlex wizard for Visual C++ 6.0. It can be found for example at h**p://www.window95.com/windows/programming.html But main problem with Flex/Bison is a license. All programs that use Flex/Bison must be GNU.

    Question about current source and improving area

    Re: current source question Depends on structure of your current source. But 64/20 transistors have less variation drain current than 1/20*64 ones. And 64/20 consumes less area.
