EnSilica are proud to announce that MOSIS have joined our Alliance Program.

MOSIS lowers the cost of fabrication by combining designs from many customers onto multi-project wafers (MPW), significantly decreasing the cost of each design.

The combination of EnSilica's design expertise and silicon fabrication via MOSIS provides a great way to realise your ASIC design - even if you thought your production volumes ruled out an ASIC solution.  Why not discuss your design with us today and see just what is possible.
