ROHM Develops the Industry's Smallest* CMOS Op Amp Optimized

　　ROHM has developed an ultra-compact 1.8V - 5V, rail-to-rail CMOS operational amplifier (op amp) - the TLR377GYZ. It is optimized for amplifying signals from sensors such as temperature, pressure, flow rate, used in smartphones, small IoT devices, and similar applications.　　The size of smartphones and IoT devices continues to decrease - requiring smaller components. To accurately amplify small signals as needed in high precision sensing, op amps must improve low input offset voltage and noise performance while continuing to shrink the form factor.　　The TLR377GYZ succeeds in balancing miniaturization with high accuracy (which has been difficult to achieve with conventional op amps) by further evolving proprietary circuit design, process, and packaging technologies cultivated over many years.　　Op amps’ input offset voltage and noise generation degrade amplification accuracy and can be suppressed by increasing the size of the built-in transistors - but at the expense of miniaturization. In response, ROHM developed proprietary circuits which achieve a maximum offset voltage as low as 1mV without increasing the size of the transistors. In addition, proprietary process technology greatly reduce flicker noise, while ultra-low noise is achieved with an input equivalent noise voltage density of 12nV/√Hz by optimizing the resistive components at the element level. Furthermore, the new product adopts a WLCSP (Wafer Level Chip Scale Package) with a ball pitch of just 0.3mm utilizing original packaging technology. This reduces size by approximately 69% compared to conventional products and 46% over existing compact products.　　The IC-mounted conversion board that can replace SSOP6 packages is also offered to support replacement considerations and initial evaluation. Both the new product and conversion board are available for purchase through online distributors. In addition, the high accuracy SPICE model - called ROHM Real Model - is available on ROHM’s website for verification simulations.　　Going forward, in addition to greater miniaturization and accuracy, ROHM will continue to improve op amp performance by reducing power consumption further utilizing proprietary ultra-low current consumption technology.　　Key Product FeatureA shut down function required by mobile devices is built in, reducing power consumption during standby mode.　　Application Examples• Smartphones, compact IoT devices equipped with measurement sensor amps, etc.　　High Accuracy Simulation Models: ROHM Real ModelsROHM Real Models are new high accuracy SPICE models that utilizes original model-based technology to faithfully reproduce the electrical and temperature characteristics of the actual IC, resulting in a perfect match between the IC and simulation values. This ensures reliable verification, contributing to more efficient application development - for example by preventing rework after prototyping. ROHM Real Models are now available on ROHM’s website.　　TerminologyInput Offset Voltage　　The error voltage that occurs between the input terminals of an op amp.　　Flicker Noise　　Noise inherent to electronic components such as semiconductors. Power is inversely proportional to frequency, so the lower the frequency the greater the power. Also called 1/f noise or pink noise. Other types of noise include thermal (i.e. Johnson-Nyquist, white) noise.　　Equivalent Input Noise Voltage Density　　The value obtained by short-circuiting the input terminals and referring the noise voltage density appearing at the output to the input terminals, i.e., since amplifiers have gain (amplification factor), dividing the output noise voltage density by the gain allows for a fair evaluation of the amplifier’s intrinsic noise characteristics.　　ROHM Real Model　　A high-accuracy simulation model that succeeds in achieving a perfect match between the actual IC and simulation values utilizing ROHM’s proprietary model-based technology.

ROHM Offers LogiCoA™: the Industry's First* Analog-Digital Fusion Control Power Supply Solution

　　ROHM has established LogiCoA™, a power supply solution for small to medium power industrial and consumer equipment (30W to 1kW class). It provides the same functionality as fully digital control power supplies at low power consumption and cost equivalent to analog power types.　　Analog controlled power supplies are commonly used in industrial robotics and semiconductor manufacturing equipment that operate in the medium power range. However, in recent years these power supplies are also required to provide a high level of reliability and precise control that make it difficult to meet market demands with analog-only configurations. On the other hand, while fully digitally controlled power supplies enable fine control and settings, they are not widely adopted in the small to medium power range due to the high power consumption and cost of the digital controller. To address this issue, ROHM developed the LogiCoA™ power solution that leverages the strengths of both analog and digital technologies. High performance low power LogiCoA™ MCUs are utilized to facilitate control of a variety of power supply topologies.　　The LogiCoA™ brand embodies a design philosophy of fusing digital elements to maximize the performance of analog circuits. ROHM’s LogiCoA™ power solution is the industry’s first* “analog-digital fusion control” power supply that combines a digital control block centered around the LogiCoA™ MCU with analog circuitry comprised of silicon MOSFETs and other power devices.　　In a fully digital control power supply, the functions handled by digital controllers such as high-speed CPUs or DSPs can be processed by low-bit MCUs, making it possible to achieve increased functionality that is difficult to realize with an analog control power supply at low power consumption and cost. This solution allows for the correction of performance variations in peripheral components according to the power supply circuit by storing various settings such as current and voltage values in the LogiCoA™ MCU. As a result, there is no need to consider design margins unlike with analog control power supplies, contributing to smaller power supplies that provide greater reliability. On top, as operation log data can be recorded in the MCU's nonvolatile memory, it is ideal for power supplies in industrial equipment that require logging as a backup in case of malfunction.　　The evaluation reference design REF66009 allows users to experience the LogiCoA™ power supply solution in a non-isolated buck converter circuit. Various tools necessary for evaluation are also offered, including circuit diagrams, PCB layouts, parts lists, sample software, and support documents, while actual device evaluation is possible using the optional LogiCoA001-EVK-001 evaluation board.　　Going forward, ROHM will continue to develop LogiCoA™ MCUs to support various power supply topologies, contributing to achieving a sustainable society by making the power supply block (which accounts for the majority of power loss in applications) more energy efficient and compact.　　LogiCoA™ BrandLogiCoA™ is a brand that embodies a design philosophy of fusing digital elements to maximize the performance of analog circuits. By combining the advantages of analog circuitry with those of digital control, it is possible to maximize the potential of circuit topologies, contributing to more efficient power utilization. As LogiCoA™ is a design concept that can be applied not only to the power supply field, but also to power solutions as a whole, ROHM is considering its application in future products and solutions.　　Details of the LogiCoA™ Power Supply Reference DesignThe REF66009 evaluation reference design offered on ROHM's website allows users to verify the functionality of the LogiCoA™ MCU along with the basic operation of the LogiCoA™ power supply solution using a non-isolated 12V buck converter circuit. Sample software available on the reference design page makes it possible to confirm the sequence control of execution tasks and the monitoring of various parameters in the actual set using the LogiCoA001-EVK-001 reference board. For more information on the reference board, please contact a sales representative or the contact page on ROHM’s website.　　Application Examples• Industrial robots　　• Semiconductor manufacturing equipment　　• Gaming applications　　Supports mounting in a wide range of general industrial equipment and consumer devices (30W to 1kW).　　About the LogiCoA™ MCUROHM is developing LogiCoA™ MCUs optimized for integrated analog-digital control such as LogiCoA™ power supply solutions. Features include a built-in 3ch analog comparator that can be linked to a timer and D/A converter that enables digital control of various parameters to support different power supply topologies.　　■ LogiCoA™ MCU Specifications (Tentative)　　Availability: Now (LogiCoA™ MCU samples)　　TerminologyFully Digital Control Power Supply　　A power supply controlled using digital technology. High-speed CPUs and DSPs can be used to precisely monitor and control various parameters such as voltage and current, improving power supply efficiency and reliability. What’s more, functions that are difficult to perform with analog control can be achieved, such as acquiring operation log data. However, CPUs and DSPs are expensive and consume a large amount of power, which can be a bottleneck in terms of costs and energy efficiency.　　Analog Control Power Supply　　A power supply configuration consisting of analog components. This type has become mainstream for power supplies 1kW and below due to its simplicity and low power consumption. On the other hand, implementing advanced functionality such as setting arbitrary parameters and logging data is difficult, requiring fully digital control that entails high costs and power consumption.　　CPU (Central Processing Unit)　　Responsible for executing programs and processing data. Handles calculations and processing as well as carrying out instructions according to a program.　　DSP　　A device that digitizes analog signals and performs operations such as analysis, filtering, and amplification on the converted digital signals. Flexible enough for high-speed processing and various applications, it plays an important role in circuits that handle digital signals, such as audio and image processing in addition to power supplies.

ROHM Develops a Novel VCSELED™ Infrared Light Source that Combines Features of VCSELs and LEDs

　　ROHM has established VCSELED™, a new infrared light source technology that encapsulates a VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) element in a resin optical diffusion material for laser light. ROHM is currently developing this technology for commercialization as a light source for improving vehicle Driver Monitoring Systems (DMS) and In-Cabin Monitoring Systems (IMS).　　To further enhance automotive safety, driver monitoring systems are increasingly being installed in vehicles equipped with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) to detect drowsiness, sleepiness, and distracted driving. In Japan, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport, and Tourism (MLIT) has created guidelines that define the design and functions of the system, and in the EU, there are plans to make installation mandatory in all new vehicles sold in Europe from July 2024 onwards. Automakers and suppliers are also developing in-vehicle monitoring systems to detect occupants other than the driver, and there is a growing awareness of the need for high-performance light sources that enable detection systems to function with greater precision.　　In response, ROHM has developed VCSELED™ that achieves high-accuracy sensing. Minimal wavelength temperature variation combined with a wide emission beam angle make it ideal not only for in-vehicle monitoring systems, but also contribute to improving the accuracy and performance of inspection systems for robots and industrial equipment as well as spatial recognition and ranging systems.　　VCSELED™ extends the beam (irradiation) angle similar to LEDs by combining a high-performance VCSEL element and light diffusion material to enable sensing over a wider area with higher accuracy than VCSELs. What’s more, the light emitting element and light diffuser are integrated into a compact package, contributing to smaller, thinner applications.　　The VCSEL element used in VCSELED™ features a narrow emission wavelength bandwidth of 4nm, approximately one-seventh that of LEDs. This characteristic improves resolution performance on the receiving side while eliminating the red glow often associated with LEDs. At the same time, a wavelength temperature variation of 0.072nm/°C - less than one-fourth that of LEDs (0.3nm/°C) - allows for high-accuracy sensing unaffected by temperature changes. Furthermore, the response time when emitting light is 2ns, approx. 7.5 times faster than LEDs, contributing to higher performance in ToF (Time of Flight) applications that use infrared light to measure distance.　　ROHM is working on commercializing VCSELED™ as a new technology brand for infrared light source components. Prototype samples is available for purchase now, with mass production samples for consumer scheduled for release in October 2024 and automotive use in 2025, respectively. To obtain samples, please contact a sales representative or visit the contact page on ROHM’s website. Going forward, we will continue to develop laser light source technology for in-vehicle monitoring and other systems.　　TerminologyVCSEL　　Short for Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser. Although conventionally used for communication, it is increasingly being adopted in recent years as a light source for the optical block in sensing systems.　　DMS　　Stands for Driver Monitoring System. A safe driving assistance function that detects whether the driver can continue safe driving based on facial and eye movements and provides alerts via sounds and/or text to prevent accidents before they occur.　　IMS(ICMS)　　Abbreviation for In-Cabin Monitoring System. This system expands the detection range to include front and rear passenger seats, occupant recognition, and biometric sensing to improve safety and comfort.　　Red Glow　　When high power infrared LEDs are used in sensors and other devices, there is a possibility that wavelengths close to those of visible light will be emitted that can be detected by the human eye. In this case, the sensor appears slightly red, hence the term “red glow”.
