Overview

Power management ICs are core components in a variety of devices, including desktop and notebook computers, mobile phones, and LCD TVs. It is a challenge to enable power management ICs to efficiently regulate and fine-tune power levels, so in order to supply a precise and accurate voltage, power management ICs generally adopt fuse schemes with poly or metal trimming. Traditionally, physically destroyed fuses like metal or poly fuses have been widely utilized in the market. Nevertheless, they carry major drawbacks such as an area penalty and cumbersome programming. Now, innovative and competitive NeoBit technology solutions provided by eMemory can help power management IC vendors resolve these issues.

NVM IP for Power Management ICs

Within the eMemory technology family, NeoBit OTP HR, NeoBit PMTP HR or NeoEE Flash HE are series aimed at low-to-medium density and embedded OTP/PMTP/Flash applications with a fuse scheme in power management ICs. Specifically, these IP series can be easily incorporated into HV or BCD processes without extra masks. In addition, high manufacturing yields, including CP and FT yields, can be attained in most professional foundries. Fast time-to-market, low cost, and FT programmability are further benefits.
