Swindon is the global leader in the design, production test and supply of tyre pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) custom ICs and other automotive sensor interfaces.
Swindon’s enhanced analogue, digital and mixed-signal ASICs, designed to our customer’s demanding requirements, provides our customer’s end product with a distinct and unique technical and commercial advantage.
Swindon’s full turnkey service (FtK) starts from initial specifications through to the supply of volume tested and calibrated ASICs including in house analogue and mixed signal design, production test, packaging, logistics and supply chain management.
Swindon also provides full evaluation, characterisation, industrial and automotive qualification (AEC Q100) and full failure analysis in accordance with defined industry standards such as TS 16949.
Swindon designs and delivers custom IC solutions that adhere to the Functional Safety standard ISO 26262. We work with our customers to determine the Automotive Safety Integrity level (ASIL) at the outset of the project.
Analogue IC design is one of Swindon’s primary areas of expertise. Over the years we have developed many analogue IP blocks which can be used across many applications.
Our proven analogue design covers many areas such as analogue to digital Convertors (ADC), digital to analogue Convertors (DAC), amplifiers (OP Amps, PGA, TIA, LNA, VGA etc), synthesizers, voltage regulators and convertors (many different architectures), voltage controlled oscillators (VCO’s), constant current generator and filters to name but a few.
Integrating a DSP or advanced processor onto your mixed signal ASIC, is common place today. Swindon has designs with anything from our own custom 16bit RISC microcontroller, an 8bit 8051 microcontroller, a custom processing block to an ARM Cortex processor.
We work with our automotive sensor customers to assess and then deliver the optimum architect for their application.
Swindon’s FtK service enables our customers to be able to focus on their core competencies whilst Swindon designs, manufactures, production tests and supplies their custom ASIC solution to anywhere in the world.
