Abstract: A voltage-level translator includes an input node, a differential amplifier, first and second output transistors, and a constant current source. The input node receives an input signal. The differential amplifier produces a voltage swing at an amplifier node based at least in part on a difference between the input signal and a voltage supply. The first output transistor provides a substantially constant current to the output node. The voltage swing produced by the differential amplifier prevents forward biasing of the second output transistor. The constant current source provides a substantially constant current both to the differential amplifier and through the first output transistor. The translator outputs a first voltage in an output voltage range at the output node when the input signal is at a high voltage, and outputs a second voltage in the output voltage range at the output node when the input signal is at a low voltage.

Abstract: A peak current modeling method and system for modeling peak current demand of an integrated circuit (IC) block such as, e.g., a compilable memory instance. A current demand curve associated with the IC for a particular IC block event is obtained via simulation, for example. A defined time region associated with the particular IC block event is divided into multiple time segments, whereupon at least a first current value and a second current value for each time segment is obtained based on the current demand curve. Thereafter, the current demand curve is approximated, on a segment-by-segment basis, using a select approximate waveform depending on a relationship between the first and second current values.
