Abstract:
1. A programmable system-on-a-chip integrated circuit device comprising: a programmable logic block; a digital input/output circuit block; a non-volatile memory block; an analog circuit block including an analog-to-digital converter; an analog input/output circuit block including, at least one voltage-measuring circuit coupled to a first I/O pad, and at least one programmable MOSFET gate-drive circuit coupled to a second I/O pad; and a programmable interconnect architecture including programmable elements and interconnect conductors, ones of said programmable elements coupled to said programmable logic block, said non-volatile memory block, said analog circuit block, said analog input/output circuit block, said digital input/output circuit block, and to said interconnect conductors, such that inputs and outputs of said programmable logic block, said non-volatile memory block, said analog circuit block, said analog input/output circuit block, and said digital input/output circuit block can be programmably coupled to one another.
