Design Services and IP
Perceptia was founded in 2003 in Silicon Valley, and provides IC design services and IP. Our customers are semiconductor companies (IDMs, fabless, design houses) and system companies. Our expertise encompasses high-speed mixed-signal and analog/RF (full custom), custom digital, and digital physical design. Our IP is focused on high-speed data transfer (SerDes, DDR, wireless) and conversion.
We have design teams in Scotts Valley (California), Sydney (Australia), and Campinas, SP (Brazil).
The Perceptia Offering
Mixed-signal and RF IC design services, with an emphasis on PLL, SerDes, PHY and high-performance radio for advanced process nodes (90, 65, 40, 28-nm for GlobalFoundries, TSMC, IBM, Samsung, etc). For analog design we may use 180 or 130-nm. Perceptia has PLL and SerDes IP that can be migrated, adapted, and customized. The IP is extremely competitive, thanks to Perceptia’s DeepSub™ technology.
DeepSub™ Technology
DeepSub™ is a technology for PLL and SerDes architectures that provides an optimized mix of analog circuits and DSP. It provides many advantages for designs in 90, 65, 40, 32, and 28-nm processes. Perceptia pioneers this technology.
Engagements
We seek long-term relationships with system and semiconductor companies, where we earn their trust and build a position as a valued extension of their design team or teams. Our focus is on companies that need ICs for wired and wireless communications. We provide turnkey design, collaborative design, and design enablement.
