Silicon IP

The Right Silicon IP

Powerful Building Blocks to Accelerate Your Designs

EnSilica’s Silicon IP portfolio provides high-performance, silicon-proven intellectual property that helps customers reduce integration risk, shorten development cycles and deliver differentiated silicon quickly and reliably.

Our extensive in-house reuse library includes proven IP ranging from radios, PLLs, ADCs and DACs, SMPSs, LDOs in a range of technology nodes through to technology independent hardware accelerator cores.

All IP is silicon-proven and have been used on EnSilica ASIC and ASSP designs. A selected subset of this portfolio is also available for external licensing and can be searched via the Design & Re-Use IP catalogue.

With world-class domain expertise in radar and cryptography, EnSilica licenses selected independent soft IP to OEMs, IDM and fabless semiconductor companies seeking to integrate advanced functionality into their own silicon.

In - House IP portfolio

EnSilica In-House IP

EnSilica offers a range of specialist, high-quality IP blocks that can be configured or customised to meet the specific requirements of our Custom ASIC and Design Services customers.

eSi-Crypto™ — High-Performance Cryptographic IP Suite

The eSi-Crypto™ family provides a comprehensive range of encryption and authentication IP, optimised for both ASIC implementations. Offering low-resource, high-throughput cryptography to secure data and communications at the hardware level.
The eSi-Crypto IP library includes:
  • Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) accelerators, including individual and combined CRYSTALS-Kyber and CRYSTALS-Dilithium cores providing resistance to future quantum threats
  • A comprehensive suite of classical cryptographic accelerators, including AES, ECC/ECDSA, SHA-1/2/3, RSA, ChaCha20, Poly1305, TDES/DES and SNOW3G, optimised for area and performance
  • A True Random Number Generator (TRNG) compliant with NIST SP 800-22, including continuous background randomness testing

eSi-ADAS™ — Radar Processing Accelerator IP

The eSi-ADAS™ suite is a radar accelerator IP family designed to enhance the performance of modern MIMO radar systems for automotive and mobile platforms. Silicon-proven in ISO 26262-certified products, eSi-ADAS offloads compute-intensive radar signal processing from host processors, enabling fast, low-latency situational awareness with low power consumption and compact implementation.
eSi-ADAS includes:
  • A range of configurable FFT engines optimised for radar signal processing
  • CFAR engines supporting multiple detection modes
  • Kalman filter and tracking engines for real-time object tracking
  • Super-resolution and matrix acceleration for enhanced plot extraction

The IP supports operation with hundreds of virtual antennas and real-time tracking updates, enabling high-performance radar capability with significantly reduced compute and power overhead.
