The ARM® general-purpose and standard I/O product family of Artisan® Physical IP helps designers complete designs quickly. Each library is developed using the ARM Process-Perfect™ Design Methodology to ensure that the design is optimized for the target silicon process and that all EDA views and models are rigorously verified. The ARM general-purpose I/O (GPIO) libraries offer a rich set of functions and options and are targeted to meet the needs of a broad range of designs. Some of the standard I/O (NGPIO) libraries are designed to complement the ARM specialty I/O products as the cell height and power/ground rails allow for easy mixing and matching within the same pad ring. Each product is delivered with a complete set of views and models for leading EDA tools. Browse the ARM Physical IP Product Catalog to view the GPIO and NGPIO libraries and other physical IP products available for a particular foundry and process. The I/O products' features and benefits are listed below. | Features | Benefits | - Up to 350 cells and 80 functions
