What are the advantages of National\s VIP50 process for low power products?
The VIP50 process is a silicon-on-insulator based IC process. SOI processes offer oxide insulation between the circuit elements and the wafer substrate. Oxide insulation results in a strong reduction in parasitic capacitances of the circuit elements. Products implemented in the VIP50 process will have greatly improved bandwidth-to-power ratios compared to conventional technologies.
