The current evolution of IC processes into deep sub-micron technology nodes has posed an ever-greater array of back-end design challenges – none of which can be tackled individually. Design engineers must deal with growing design complexity while maintaining signal integrity and fulfilling low power requirements, and must do so on ever-decreasing areas of silicon. At the same time, project managers face the dilemma of relying on costly third-party EDA tools and services or allocating internal resources to do it themselves. The combined challenges on both technical and operational fronts mean that getting your product to market - before the competition does – is a daunting and uncertain proposition.

Through our partnerships with leading ASIC design service companies, S2C helps you access the back-end services you need to get your chip to production in a timely manner. Moreover, if your product design has undertaken the SoC prototyping flow process – by having your product design go through the SoC prototyping process, S2C can further ensure that your end chip is consistent with your initial SoC design specifications.

Benefits:
		Ease of mind – One-stop access to the full range of design flow services that will help see your concept through to back-end chip design and all the way to foundry-level production
		High efficiency – Specialists in each phase focus on their technical proficiencies, leading to a shorter design cycle
		Low cost – Obtain value-added services without purchasing costly EDA tools you may only use a few times
		Flexible IP licensing and rights model – IP purchase can be structured according to your business strategy
		Free from process technology restrictions – Compatible with the majority of silicon foundries
