Standard I/O (GPIO)

Dolphin Technology offers a wide range of I/O that consists of standard LVCMOS/LVTTL I/O, bus interface specific (special) I/O as well as high speed I/O. The variety of our I/O offering provides our customers with a complete range of I/O solutions. We specialize in Staggered, Inline, and Flip-Chip (C4) pads with aggressive pitch for the most demanding designs, whether pad limited or core limited. Our standard I/O include built in JTAG for testability and include a broad range of drive strength, slew rate control, pull-up, pull-down and sustain
