The BCD process technology has been around since the mid-eighties, but there has more recently been phenomenal interest and growth in BCD technology. This has been driven by the growing need in Power Management IC (PMICs), motor-control, power audio and many other applications targeting the consumer, industrial or automotive markets. The need for more intelligence […]
Dolphin Integration introduce this article at the Nanjing SOI Workshop & tutorial on september 21 – 22, 2017. This event was sponsored by the City of Nanjing, co-organized by SOI Industry Consortium. Over 200 participants attended the workshop and tutorial about SOI applications, SoC development and manufacturing, EDA & IP ecosystem, and the design tutorial
Dolphin Design offer a complete silicon IP offering to build an Always-on power domain which consumes less than 0.5 uA, incl. the retention RAM. Complemented by its consistent low-power panoply, Dolphin Design then enable a new breakthrough, enabling to envision architectural solutions for the whole Voltage Regulation Network to significantly lower the power consumption of
Unique solution and methodology for reducing the power consumption for the SoC Read More »
The challenge of improving the RFID reader detection range and thus the identification rate induce that the chips must be able to operate at extremely low voltage, as the energy caught by the antenna is lowered. This challenge leads to consider every mean to reduce the RFID chips power consumption. One of the main way
Energy management is at the heart of the new generation of systems-on-chips (SoCs) targeting battery-powered applications. More complex power architectures are required to enable devices to run on the same battery for years rather than months. These new architectures often result in new noise challenges. To deal with the complex tasks of defining and implementing
Reducing the power consumption is indeed a vital challenge for battery-powered devices. To face this problem, SoC designers need to use more complex design architectures, which translate into higher risks and a longer design cycle. Let us see how Dolphin Integration is able to design a Low Power SoC with less risks

The ongoing analog switch-off in several emerging economies, refresh cycles in North America and some parts of Europe, and upgrades to advanced functionality with a richer user interface for quick search and discovery of content are driving the growth of the global Set-top Boxes market. In this competitive market, Fabless providers must offer SoC which
Dolphin Integration announces the filing of a patent relating to the management of the consumption modes of Systems-on-chip or SoC. This patent addresses the problem of control of resources (power supplies, clock signals…) in order to master the critical phases of the start-up and changes in consumption patterns: ignition, extinction, change of power level or
In the latest advanced nodes, getting a quick loading time for large analog circuits becomes a decisive stake. This paper explains how the latest SMASH™ revision allows to reach it. SMASH™ is a seamless IC-PCB mixed-signal simulator enabling the development and verification of analog and mixed-signal Silicon IPs and Integrated Circuits (IC) as well as
Given that the Dolphin share price has appreciated well since the end of May, the company’s Chairman has announced having increased his investment in Dolphin (ALDOL) shares. This is his sign of confidence in the corporate perspectives on the highly competitive market of microelectronics. The combination of its service activities and its supply of software
