Services

Cascoda provides an end-to-end design consultancy service, from initial concept to full custom layout, verification and foundry sign-off. Our engineers are capable of stepping in and out at any point in the development cycle, allowing our customers to concentrate on their core competencies, whilst maintaining control of project costs.

We offer design services in the following areas:

  • Feasibility studies and design specification
  • Resource and timescale planning
  • Project management
  • Analogue and digital system design
  • Full custom CMOS analogue design, layout and verification
  • HDL design
  • Modelling for mixed signal systems
  • Development of customer specific IP blocks
  • Design of complete chips (ASICs)


Cascoda has a full suite of EDA development software in-house, which allows us to develop small IP blocks to complete ASICs. We have experience of interfacing with foundries in Europe, Asia and the US, and are capable of driving all the industry standard verification tools for sign-off.

For scope limited tasks, our Engineers may work at our customer’s site. This presents an advantage over hiring contractors, since we will continue to support the design after development in case of changes in specification or modified requirements.

Our design team has build up extensive experience and skills in many areas of circuit design including:

  • Low Power
Weak Inversion, V & I References, RC & Crystal Oscillators
  • Switched Cap
Low Offset Amplifiers and Integrators, Filters, V/I conversion
  • Mixed Mode
Advanced A/D and D/A Converters, Smart Control Systems
  • Integrated Sensing
Capacitive Sensors, Optical Detectors
  • High Frequency
PLL Design, Frequency Synthesis, CDR, High Speed Logic
  • Digital
Communication Interfaces, Microprocessor Peripherals
  • Mixed Voltage
Voltage Regulation, LED Drivers, Level Conversion


We have experience with all major EDA tools and can adapt our toolsets accordingly to fit our customers needs. For more details contact us.
