Overview

ASIC engineering, from RTL to silicon

Envytee supports ASIC teams across the chip development lifecycle. Our engineers work as an extension of your team, using your tools, flows and standards, to keep schedules on track from architecture through tape-out and bring-up.

  • Digital front-end: ASIC and RTL design and verification
  • Back-end: physical design, signoff and physical verification
  • Analog and mixed-signal design and layout
  • Embedded software and firmware for silicon bring-up

ASIC & RTL

ASIC & RTL design and verification

Solid front-end work sets the quality of everything downstream. We help teams build clean, verifiable RTL and close verification with confidence.

  • RTL design and micro-architecture support
  • Lint, CDC and RDC checks
  • Logic synthesis and constraint development
  • Functional verification: testbench, UVM, coverage closure
  • DFT support: scan, ATPG and MBIST hand-off
  • FPGA prototyping and emulation support
RTL to netlist
Physical Design

Physical design across the implementation flow

From a netlist to a manufacturable layout, our team covers every stage of the back-end flow and its signoff checks.

  • Floorplanning, power planning and placement
  • Clock tree synthesis (CTS)
  • Routing and post-route optimization
  • Timing closure and STA signoff
  • Physical verification: DRC, LVS, antenna, density
  • Power, IR drop and EM analysis, ECO implementation

Analog Practice

Analog & mixed-signal practice

Analog blocks demand careful design and layout. Our engineers support the full path from schematic to verified layout.

  • Analog and mixed-signal circuit design support
  • Custom and analog layout
  • Memory and standard-cell design and characterization
  • Post-layout extraction and simulation
  • Layout verification and design-rule closure
Embedded & Firmware

Embedded software and firmware

Silicon is only useful once software runs on it. We build and validate the low-level software that brings chips to life.

  • Bootloaders, drivers and board support packages
  • Firmware for SoCs, microcontrollers and processors
  • Pre- and post-silicon validation software
  • Bring-up, debug and test automation
  • Scripting and tooling for validation flows
