INDUSTRY

Semiconductor

Silicon companies engage Faststream for IP, for design capacity and for FPGA-to-ASIC conversion. The work spans front end through physical implementation, and the most common request is the one nobody advertises: taking over a block that is late and closing it.

COMMON QUESTIONS

What engineers ask before they call.

01

What semiconductor services does Faststream provide?

IP licensing, full custom ASIC and SoC design from architecture to tapeout, verification and DFT, physical implementation, mixed-signal and RF design, FPGA design and FPGA-to-ASIC conversion, plus bring-up, test program development and yield analysis.

02

Where can I see the IP catalogue?

The products section lists it, and it is also published on Design & Reuse under both the silicon IP and verification IP supplier listings.
