Australia
ASTC / IQonIC Works is an Australian semiconductor company developing RISC-V microcontroller ICs and application-specific silicon solutions for embedded and industrial applications.
More broadly, ASTC / IQonIC Works helps customers solve complex system-level problems where differentiation matters. We provide a development path that combines silicon, sensing, software and system expertise to create new solutions that can help customers stay ahead in their markets or establish an advantage over their strongest competitors.
We work with electronics companies, OEMs, and system integrators worldwide, providing standard IC products as well as configurable and customised silicon solutions. Our capabilities include RISC-V-based MCU and SoC platforms, custom ASIC development, SPAD-based imaging and sensing technologies, and embedded system design support.
Our semiconductor products are supported by a comprehensive development ecosystem, including SDKs, firmware, development boards, software tools, and reference designs, helping customers evaluate, develop, and integrate our technologies into their applications.
We also support flexible manufacturing and supply models through our network of foundry and OSAT partners, including IQonIC Works-managed production and our Fab-It-Yourself (FIY) licensing model.
ASTC / IQonIC Works provides custom silicon solutions based on our proven IQMC platform, helping customers accelerate development, shorten time to market and reduce design risk.
At the heart of the platform is IQonIC Works’s high-performance 32-bit RISC-V core, featuring a six-stage pipeline and support for vector and custom instructions. The platform offers a broad range of customizable silicon IP, including CAN-FD, 10/100 Mbps Ethernet, multi-channel 12-bit SAR ADCs and embedded flash memory. Designed for industrial automation, motor and machine control, and smart sensing applications, the IQMC platform can be tailored to meet each customer’s specific MCU, SoC and system requirements.
Designed, tested and validated against the latest standards, our software is powering USB-C/PD devices in the field. The list of deployed applications is diverse and now includes VR headsets, ruggedised charging units and meeting room extenders.
