A focused IC layout design consultancy based in the Netherlands.
TechChip Engineering BV is an independent consultancy specialised in integrated circuit layout design. We partner with semiconductor companies, fabless startups and design houses that need senior layout expertise — without the overhead of permanent hires.
From our base in Oss, Netherlands, we work with clients across Europe, contributing to projects in industrial, automotive, medical and high-performance computing markets. Whether you need a single block or full top-level integration, we plug in seamlessly with your team and tools.
Our approach is deliberately narrow and deep. Rather than spreading across the entire design flow, we concentrate on the discipline where physical execution makes or breaks a chip: layout. That focus lets us deliver work that is not just DRC/LVS clean, but genuinely optimised for performance, area and manufacturability.
Our values
Precision
Engineering rigor at every stage — from architecture review to silicon characterisation.
Partnership
We integrate with your team, share ownership, and stay accountable to your outcomes.
Senior talent
Decades of combined experience across analog, digital, RF and embedded domains.
From first floorplan to tape-out
A clear, low-friction way of engaging that fits around your existing flow.
Scope & align
We review your specs, PDK and constraints to define a clear layout plan.
Integrate
We plug into your tools and methodology — working as an extension of your team.
Execute
Full-custom layout with continuous DRC/LVS and parasitic-aware iteration.
Sign-off
Verification, extraction and tape-out-ready hand-off across leading PDKs.
Led by senior layout expertise
Marthony Jones V. Escobinas
Managing Director
As Managing Director of TechChip Engineering BV, Marthony supports semiconductor companies in delivering high-performance RF and analog IC products through expert mask layout design. Working closely with design teams, he translates schematics into silicon-ready layouts across advanced technology nodes.
With decades of hands-on experience spanning deep-submicron technologies operating in the GHz range, his work covers everything from floorplanning through tape-out — with a constant focus on performance, matching and reliability.
