ChipGlobe

Germany

ChipGlobe has 15+ years ASIC design, verification, software, implementation, layout and firmware expertise for digital and mixed-signal designs. The implementation and verification of FPGAs and the realization of complex embedded systems are complementary.

 

We work with business models such as insourcing (on site with project support and ChipGlobe Managed Consulting) and outsourcing (execution in the Chipglobe Design Centers with on-site manager at the customer).

 

For Embedded Systems we offer turnkey designs.

 

Our teams are globally positioned (Munich, Belgrade, Singapore).

 

Our expertise lies in the areas of automotive, telecommunications, security and networking. We provide security for successful design implementations for all technology nodes.

 

We support you with prototype/application solutions including sensors, based on secure hardware for secure wireless and wireline applications. The range is from new design of secure electronics hardware including PCB to adding hardware based security to your existing products (e.g. home automation, IoTs).
