Due to its low leakage, the standard cell library from Dolphin Integrations has been chosen by Enverv to enable smart metering applications. Compared to a HVT library operating at 1.2V, the SESAME BIV library reduces leakage by 1/350.

The library features a direct battery connection, from 3.3V ±10% to 1.2V ±10%. As the SESAME BIV provides a battery connection, a regulator is not required. The battery connection also enables seven times the density, which reduces the die cost.

“Dolphin Integration enable Enverv to reach requirements of Smart metering applications” said Dr. Farrokh Farrokhi, Vice President of Engineering, Enverv. “Thanks to the unique architecture of SESAME BIV TSMC 65nm LP and Dolphin Integration’s low leakage expertise, we can save battery life and reduce our die cost in this growing market of smartgrid and smarthome.”

“We are eager to announce this first collaboration with Enverv and to partake in the success of their product in the Smart metering sector”, commented Nelly ALBERTINI, Library Marketing Manager, Dolphin Integration. ”This partnership highlights Dolphin Integration’s low-power expertise, which is becoming essential.”
