Top level Design (RTL)
Microarchitecture through RTL coding for performance, power, and area goals—with coding guidelines that scale across large design organizations.
- Block-level and subsystem RTL ownership
- Clocking, reset, and power-aware design patterns
- Integration support for IP and PHY interfaces
- Placement based RTL code customizations
Placement and Routing /Timing (PD)
Floorplanning through closure: timing, power, and area convergence with foundry-aware implementation strategies.
- Floorplan, placement, CTS, and routing
- Multi-corner multi-mode timing closure
- Physical verification readiness (DRC/LVS)
Functional/Formal Verification
Structured verification planning, constrained-random stimulus, coverage closure, and formal methods where they reduce risk fastest.
- UVM testbenches and reusable VIP strategy
- Assertions, coverage metrics, and regressions
- Gate-level and low-power simulation support
- Parallel execution of design and verifiication
Design For Test (DFT)
Scan, compression, MBIST/LBIST planning, and ATPG-friendly structures—balanced with silicon cost and schedule realities.
- DFT architecture and insertion flows
- Pattern generation and diagnostics collaboration
- Yield-aware test strategy discussions
IP design
Standard cell design requirements.
- I/O design (interfaces)
- Memory design
- Custom macros
Analog and Mixed signal
- Analog & mixed-signal library development
- High speed SerDes PHY design
System design
Board-aware thinking, reference platforms, interconnect budgets, and compliance paths that keep hardware programs unblocked.
- Hardware reference design support for different domains
- SI/PI signoff
- EMI signoff
Hardware validation
Lab execution, debug discipline, and evidence capture—so software teams receive stable platforms on predictable timelines.
- Bring-up plans, checkpoints, and issue triage
- Signal/probing support aligned to SI/PI risks
- Regression-style validation for hardware releases
Customer support services
Domain-aware support across product lifecycles—scaling from focused task forces to embedded engineering pods.
- Platform-specific debug and design assistance
- Vendor and ecosystem coordination support
- Knowledge transfer and documentation packages
