Intellectual Property (IP) Solutions
ICKAM engineers are highly experienced in development of intellectual property (IP) blocks targeted to either ASIC or FPGA designs. We develop both design and verification IP to the same rigorous standards found in ASIC and SoC development.
ASIC Solutions
ICKAM engineers apply vast domain expertise and experience to deliver first-pass success in silicon. We take products from concept to tapeout through
a rigorous, multi-faceted ASIC development process that covers:

Through strong industry partnerships, we can extend our offering to include delivery of packaged and tested prototypes.
FPGA Solutions
FPGAs are the first choice technology for small volume high-performance digital systems. ICKAM turnkey FPGAs are a great way to realize fast-time-to-market and
low NRE costs. ICKAM engineers are experienced with Xilinx (Alliance Program Member), Altera, and Actel technologies. Our clients realize the time-to-market and
low NRE benefits that FPGAs provide but with the rigor you expect from ASIC development. We cover:
- Concept and specifications
- IP selection (including Third Party IP)
- VHDL/Verilog Testbench generation
- RTL coding
- Functional Verification (Block and Top level)
- Synthesis to target technology
- Placement & Routing
- Static timing analysis
- Migration to ASIC technology
