Modular capabilities for IC design and data intelligence—clear scope, acceptance-ready delivery, and auditable compliance.
Start from your scenario, then align scope, definitions, and deliverables during the first call.
Custom IC/SoC, IP integration, sign-off verification, and tape-out support.
Open ModuleYield analytics (YAE), reliability & predictive maintenance—governance and consistent metrics included.
Open ModuleDesign knowledge base, assistive intelligence, and standardized flows for faster convergence.
Open ModuleCo-delivery of hardware and data, with observability and continuous improvement loops.
Open ModuleCustom delivery for Fabless, OEM/system companies, and research projects—driven by engineering processes for quality and traceability.
Custom IC design: from spec definition and architecture to RTL implementation and physical design—end-to-end or module-by-module.
SoC system design & integration: subsystem integration, HW/SW co-design and verification, with production-oriented project discipline.
IP licensing & integration: evaluation, licensing coordination, integration, and tailoring (subject to authorization and compliance review).
Verification & sign-off: front-end simulation, FPGA prototyping, back-end sign-off (timing/power/physical, as applicable), and issue closure.
Tape-out support: stage-based checklists, documentation readiness, and milestone confirmation—plus full-cycle coordination and technical support.
Typical deliverables (examples): specifications, architecture docs, verification plans & coverage reports, sign-off reports, version/change logs, and tape-out preparation checklists.
Governance first—then build sustainable intelligence loops around yield, reliability, and full lifecycle operations.
Yield analytics & improvement (YAE): identify key factors from manufacturing-test data and wafer electrical parameters, and close the loop with actionable recommendations.
Predictive maintenance & reliability: build models from in-field runtime and fault data to optimize reliability and lifecycle management.
Governance & definitions: metric definitions, data quality, master data, access control, and audit to ensure usable, trustworthy, and traceable data.
Implementation path: scenario selection (pilot) → data inventory & authorization → governance & definitions → analytics/modeling → dashboards & workflow embedding → iteration.
Deliverables (examples): metric definition docs, data dictionary & lineage, masking rules, analysis reports, model evaluation reports, operations playbook, and alert/closure workflows.
Turn historical design data into reusable knowledge, then introduce assistive intelligence in an explainable, verifiable way.
Design data mining & knowledge base: structure historical project data into searchable best practices and reusable templates.
Assistive intelligence: predictive insights and optimization suggestions for intermediate results (place/route, timing convergence, power hotspots, etc.), validated via PoC.
Flow standardization: checkpoints, review gates, and version management to improve cross-team efficiency and traceability.
Deliverables (examples): knowledge-base IA, labeling & quality standards, evaluation metrics, toolchain integration guidance, pilot validation reports, and retrospectives.
Outcome statement principle: no guaranteed uplift claims—benefits are evaluated via baselines and reproducible definitions.
For products and system applications, we co-deliver custom chips with data collection/analytics and algorithm optimization for an end-to-end loop.
Design custom data-processing chips for end customers, with post-deployment data collection, analytics, and algorithm optimization services.
Typical scenarios: edge intelligence, equipment condition monitoring, reliability loops, data-driven product iteration, and operations optimization.
Delivery focus: clear interfaces, consistent data definitions, production observability, and accountable issue handling.
Data compliance: define collection scope, purpose, retention, and sharing boundaries before kickoff; sign DPA and NDA as needed.
Security requirements: configure access control, audit logs, encryption, and backups to meet MLPS 2.0 and client security requirements.
Before kickoff we align deliverables, communication cadence, and boundaries to reduce collaboration friction.
Deliverables vary by service type. Below are common examples.
| Service Type | Phase Outputs | Final Outputs |
|---|---|---|
| IC/SoC design | Spec clarifications, architecture review notes | Design delivery package (per contract) |
| Sign-off & tape-out | Verification plan, issue tracking & closure | Sign-off reports, tape-out checklist |
| Chip data analytics & platform | Metric definitions, dictionary & masking rules | Analytics/model reports, operations playbook |
| Smart EDA & flow optimization | Pilot plan, baseline definitions | Validation report, reuse & rollout checklist |
| Integrated (chip + data) | Joint specification & data compliance assessment | Architecture, go-live and operations loop |
Routine requests are responded to within 1 business day. Urgent items can be handled via an agreed fast-track process.
During the project we assign a fixed communication owner and (by default) run bi-weekly progress syncs with risk notes.
Deliveries follow a submit → confirm → revise → archive workflow to ensure version traceability.
