Helic is an EDA specialist developing innovative and disruptive design automation technologies for the semiconductor market. Founded in May 2000, the company is backed by strategic and venture capital investors. Helic reaches its customers with a service model combining EDA tools, IP and services, with a mission to enable first-pass silicon while greatly shortening the development cycles of high-speed digital, analog RF and millimeter-wave ICs.
Helic's background technology is a unique high-speed parasitics extraction methodology. It was conceived to address a critical missing link in custom IC design flows and accelerate the development of complex RFICs and systems-in-package by enabling rapid, whole-chip electromagnetic modeling early in the design flow. The technology has been in use since 2000 by fabless companies and silicon IDMs worldwide.
Combining our specialized EDA tooling with breakthrough IP we are helping our customers develop first-time-right silicon, slash their development costs and reduce their time to market. Our technologies are particularly well suited for demanding high-speed designs, multi-band transceivers and high-frequency front-ends, especially where high performance, low power and low cost are the driving requirements.
