Orienting voltage translators in input/output buffers |
摘要 |
Described embodiments provide for a semiconductor device comprising a core and one or more input/output (I/O) buffers surrounding the core. The I/O buffers are adapted to transfer signals associated with core circuitry of the core. The I/O buffers comprise I/O cells having a first orientation and I/O cells having a second orientation. Each I/O cell has a corresponding translator having low voltage transistors in a corresponding footprint. The low voltage transistors in the first orientation I/O cells have the first orientation, and the low voltage transistors in the second orientation I/O cells have the first orientation. The footprints of the first orientation I/O cells and the second orientation I/O cells are compatible with one another.
