Summary :

A power-aware interconnect circuit design--called µI/O architecture--has been developed to provide low-cost system solutions for System-on-Chip (SoC) and System-in-Package (SiP) technologies. The µI/O architecture provides a common interface throughout the module enabling hierarchical I/O design for SoC and SiP. The hierarchical I/O design allows the driver size to be optimized without increasing design complexity. Moreover, it includes a signal-level converter for integrating wide-voltage-range circuit blocks and a signal wall function for turning off each block independently--without invalid signal transmission--by using an internal power switch.
