supply voltage of AD9213

Question

I would like to ask you expert , as far as I know most of the 28nm processes have a core voltage of 0.9V, why is the AD9213 a 1V supply, is it the tsmc process used?

Expertise Answer: 
 "Yes, is a TSMC 28nm process. The standard cells are design to operate at 0.9 V nominal. TSMC rates this cell up to 1.05 V. We use 1 volt nominal for the analog supply to get better performance at 10 GSPS. The circuit was designed this way, characterization and reliability testing were performed using this nominal voltage." 
 Let us know if you have any other question. 
 
 Thank you!
