IC Layout Design Consulting
One discipline, mastered. Layout that meets spec — and ships on time.
We focus exclusively on IC layout design. Engage us as an extension of your team, or hand off complete blocks for execution and sign-off.
Team extension
We plug into your flow, tools and methodology — adding senior layout capacity exactly when and where you need it, without permanent headcount.
Block hand-off
Give us a defined block or subsystem and we deliver it complete — laid out, verified and tape-out-ready against your specs and PDK.
End-to-end layout capabilities
Full-Custom IC Layout
Hand-crafted analog, mixed-signal and RF layout optimised for performance, area and yield.
