AMALIA™ IP re-use platform: reimagining analog IP reuse

Our AMALIA platform allows our customers to reduce the cost, time to market and if required, improve the performance in their designs. One of the key benefits of this platform is improving the ability to monetise the existing portfolio of IPs.

Thalia’s AMALIA IP re-use platform revolutionizes the reuse of analog and mixed signal integrated circuits – migrating, refining and optimizing existing IP for new applications and technologies. This enables IP houses and IC design companies to re-use and diversify product ranges quickly and cost effectively to meet evolving market demand and reach new markets.

We have successfully delivered up to 50% savings in development time, costs and resources on a wide range of products, technologies and process nodes, from 350nm down to 22nm. Thalia has a proven track record of delivering designs from base band to high GHz applications in advanced technologies, and in some of the industry’s most demanding application areas.

In addition to dramatically improving time-to-market, the scalability of the AMALIA platform:

  • Optimises existing IP for new applications and technologies
  • Qualifies IP in the target technology with the technology analyzer
  • Cost-effectively delivers exactly the right feature and performance combination to tight deadlines
  • Enables in-house design teams to focus on innovation

Whatever the process technology, Thalia works with IP vendors, helping them to respond quickly and efficiently to market demands.
