-[* black] The die photo for the Infineon 1014 ASIC doesn't reveal too much about its functional layout -- there is a large metal layer over the circuit. However, Chipworks does have a [link|http://bit.ly/cYYSpK|full] [link|http://bit.ly/aJZf3l|analysis] on a similar device from Infineon for interested parties.

[* black] The metal layer could be acting as a ground plane or might be used RF shielding; or it may simply stop folks from looking at the die circuitry now that teardowns are getting popular.
