Production Tape-Out Milestone Achieved on Siemens AG Design and Supply
Contract
EnSilica plc (AIM: ENSI), a leading fabless chipmaker of mixed-signal ASICs
(Application Specific Integrated Circuits), is pleased to announce that the
ASIC developed under the design and supply contract awarded by Siemens AG, as
announced on 12 September 2024
(https://www.londonstockexchange.com/news-article/ENSI/siemens-ag-award-design-supply-contract/16661294)
, has successfully reached the production tape-out milestone.
This milestone marks the completion of the design phase and the release of
final data to the semiconductor foundry to commence manufacturing of the
production tooling and first samples. It represents a significant step towards
volume production of the ASIC, where production of the ASIC is scheduled to
begin ramping up in January 2027, earlier than initially expected.
Ian Lankshear, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"I would like to thank the team for their hard work and close collaboration
with our customer in achieving this milestone, which is a key step on the path
to full-scale production. The Company now has five chips in production and a
dozen chips in its design pipeline soon progressing to tape-out, testing,
qualification and into production.
This achievement is a testament to the world-class skills and dedication of
our engineering and operations teams."
