CAPACITIVE FINGERPRINT SENSING ROIC

9 months: design start to prototype silicon 

We enabled the disruptive fingerprint sensing paradigm envisioned by our customer, Touch Biometrix LTD, by designing a Read-Out IC (ROIC) for its first ever FAP60 capacitive fingerprint scanner based on Thin-Film-Transistor (TFT) technology. The ROIC succeeds at accurately digitizing the capacitive current of a 1600 x 1500 TFT pixel matrix for a full FAP60 scan in less than 60 ms. The first prototype design features a Chip-on-Foil compatible backend with very fine pitch (~ 1-cm total IC width), and it has been then upgraded to product.

INTEGRATED MAGNETIC SENSOR

8 weeks: design start to prototype silicon

Our customers is the Isolation Products Division of a semiconductor leader, who has a strong portfolio based on optical isolation techniques. Application of this fully integrated single chip magnetic sensor opened a new line of magnetic isolation products. Based on our reference high speed magnetic design in 2 months’ time a 180nm CMOS prototype was shipped.

PROXIMITY AND AMBIENT LIGHT DETECTION

3 months: custom ASIC tapout

SystematIC has designed a family of products which combines Ambient Light Sensor (ALS) and Infra-red Proximity Detection Sensor (PS) in a single SoC. The ambient light sensor matches the response of the human eye. The infra red proximity sensor measures the distance to an object. Our client is a leading global organization providing components to mobile phone manufacturing companies.

CURRENT SENSOR

12 weeks: prototype to factory

We were handed the responsibility of a current sensor IC that monitors charge and discharge currents of a battery in a mobile phone and will remain insensitive to the variations of the supply voltage. We took charge of the entire design trajectory along with evaluation and redesign that was needed to make the final product a notch better than competition.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR

4 weeks: architecture proposal

In this project we developed an analog front-end architecture for a given capacitive MEMS pressure sensor. The front end must accurately measure the pressure in a tire and be robust against leakage, parasitics and noise. The SystematIC methodology was applied. First off, the sensor was electronically modelled to determine an optimal excitation and read out architecture. Next, during the detailed design phase the front-end was designed and layouted for a modern automotive IC application, including safety and test features.

X-RAY DETECTOR READOUT

20 weeks: prototype IC

The customer has a leading international position in industrial X-ray crystallography systems. In one of these products a multi-channel HV passive X-ray sensor is applied for material analysis and an accurate matched channel readout and signal processing ASIC is required. SystematIC proposed an architecture of ultra-low noise front ends that are noise optimized to the sensor element and applied in a matched channel configuration. The digital electronics where designed as special CMOS CML logic to obtain low crosstalk.

ac-led-driver-custom-IC

4 weeks: architecture proposal

The customer produced a range of AC LED lamps, built with discrete electronics, with limited set of external components. The lamps were directly driven from the AC Mains resulting in a compact and potentially low-cost construction. The customer was looking for a custom ASIC solution for further performance enhancement, simplification of the supply chain and cost reduction. A discrete prototype was build and demonstrated to the customer just after two weeks of first contact. The successful demonstration was followed by the development of ASIC and industrialization of the same.

POINT-OF-LOAD POWER CONTROLLER

4 weeks: architecture and IC design proposal

Our customer, a fabless semiconductor company, started a new product line of drivers and controllers for power converter applications in industrial applications. SystematIC took care of the design of a complex power controller IC targeting application in Point-of-Load Power Modules, used in Ethernet Routers and Switches and other Industrial Applications. The customer’s approach was to offer a very versatile IC to the market that also realized excellent performance parameters (efficiency, ripple, etc). The customer discovered a strong market interest and had marketing & sales and application support in place but lacked the IC design resources for a quick product development. Within a year SystematIC developed all accurate analog functions in a new IC process and delivered the verified mixed-signal chip design and layout.

INTEGRATED POWER SWITCH

18 months: from IC definition to final test support

Applications supporting plug-and-play connections require (accurate) over-current protections, preferably implemented in a low-cost solid-state IC. For a division of a large semiconductor company the accurate current control was a design challenge that was tackled by involving SystematIC in the design. The area, cost-of-silicon and on-resistance of the integrated power switch are relevant parameters for the technology choice, but in any case dictate preference for an NMOS power switch. Using an NMOS switch however complicates the design of driver and sensing circuits. SystematIC did the challenging full-chip circuit design, including current sensing circuits using low-offset chopped amplifiers, adjustable over-current current control, over-temperature protection, and push-pull chargepumps to drive the NMOS.

EAR PROTECTION CONTROL IC

4 weeks: discrete prototype demo

Our customer DEC develops and produces Dynamic Sound technology products which can typically be used as stand-alone hearing protection or embedded in headphone systems, hearing aids and hearables. The IC we designed for DEC was an example of an integration project for SME and it covers most aspects of a SystematIC turnkey solution. Our contribution extends from system study to implementation, manufacturability and testability for ears, from zeroing in the IC process to IC design and layout and the production preparation.

ELECTRIC PROPULSION

several years of R&D in multiple generations of power units

State-of-the-art electric propulsion (EP) systems used in satellites exhibit impressive performance, but the used technologies cannot be scaled down in size and power whilst retaining system performance. So there are no conventional technologies for propulsion for the upcoming micro- and nano-satellite market. SystematIC partners in the European HiperLoc-EP project which aims to use a novel approach to develop an Electrospray Colloid Electric Propulsion System (ECEPS) suitable for small (cubesat) form factors. SystematIC develops the miniaturized Power Processing Unit for such a small form-factor electric propulsion system, achieving all required performance parameters, including a good power conversion efficiency and accuracy of the ultra high-voltage control.
