  10. IP Cells • 2009: • General purpose LVDS cells • Low power modified LVDS IO driver/receiver • I2C slave block • “Prompt” radiation detection cell (obligatory for future “exportable” designs) • Bandgap • 2010: • Generic PLL in 130 and 90 nm • E-Link macro • General description • I2C slave port with TMR • 4 or 7 internal addresses available • Din and Dout buses • Deliverables • Verilog • RTL • Gate level • Macro cell: • Abstract • Layout • Timing files • Dimension: 130x130 um2 • Gate count: 1850 A. Marchioro - March '10

  11. The CERN ASIC support website http://cern.ch/asic-support Download Design Kits and access technical documents (restricted access) Information about MPW runs and foundry access services. Communicate news and User support feedback forms and access request forms. A. Marchioro - March '10

  12. Essential support: TRAINING • Workshop sessions • 1st session: 26/10 – 30/10, 2009 (CERN internal engineers, “pilot” run) • 2nd session: 16/11 – 20/11, 2009 (CERN) • 3rd session: 30/11 – 4/12, 2009 (IN2P3, Strasbourg, France) • 4th session: 1/2 – 5/2, 2010 (CERN) • 5th session: 15/2 – 19/2, 2010 (CERN) • 6th session: 1/3 – 5/3, 2010 (CERN) • 7th session: End of April 2010 • Statistics • 10 engineers/session. • 60 engineers in total. • Support • Technical: K. Kloukinas, B.vanKoningsveld • Secretarial: E. Dho A. Marchioro - March '10

  13. Other activities • Negotiations of Contracts with Companies • Foundry • Foundry broker (CERN has most advantageous conditions!) • CAE Tools • Packages acquired through WP1 funds is now distributed for free to HEP Institutes • Export Issues • Negotiation with US Export Authorities, interface to DoE • Harmonization of strategies for insuring easyhandlingof RH chips and systems • Great help from CERN legal office A. Marchioro - March '10

  14. Plans for 2010 and beyond • Continue to support Institutes involved in HEP designs • Extend contract for support of new design methodology support to 90 and 65 nm • Complete RH 90nm library and essential macro blocks (SRAM, special IO, PLL etc.) • 90 nm irradiation test for SEU (dual-well vs. triple-well) • First 65 nm irradiation tests for TID • Restart regular Microelectronics User eXchange (MUX) meetings with tutorial seminars from industry experts A.
