proteanTecs®, a global leader in deep data monitoring solutions for advanced electronics, has introduced its silicon-proven LVTS™ (Local Voltage and Thermal Sensor) with a fast over-temperature alert capability for the 2nm process node, delivering unprecedented accuracy and integration for next-generation semiconductor designs. As high-performance applications in AI, cloud computing, ADAS, and telecommunications demand tighter control of voltage and heat, traditional diode-based and ring-oscillator sensors have proven inadequate at 2nm and below. LVTS addresses these limitations with ±1.0°C temperature accuracy and ±1.5% voltage accuracy using low-voltage core transistors, marking a first for GAA-based designs.

“2nm is a tipping point for the industry, where legacy approaches to thermal sensing simply don’t cut it,” said Evelyn Landman, co-founder and CTO of proteanTecs. “LVTS provides an accurate, low-power, and easy-to-integrate solution that enables full-chip coverage and real-time alerts, giving chipmakers the confidence to scale to the most advanced nodes.” Already proven at 5nm, 3nm, and now 2nm, LVTS integrates seamlessly with proteanTecs’ HW IP Monitoring System to enhance reliability, performance monitoring, and RAS strategies. Additionally, two new LVTS variants have been launched: one extending external voltage measurement down to zero volts, and another ultra-small remote sensors for hotspot detection-offering broader flexibility for diverse semiconductor design needs.
