Presto Engineering Inc., a leader in semiconductor product engineering and supply chain management, today announced that it has joined GlobalSolutions®, GlobalFoundries' (GF) ecosystem of partners that provides services from conception to production. As an ecosystem partner, Presto will provide its post-silicon engineering and production turnkey solutions based upon GF's technologies and services for customers across the globe.
The partnership will focus on specialized testing and packaging, leveraging Presto's extensive mixed signal, radio frequency (RF) and analog test expertise to deliver system-level differentiation in semiconductors for GF's advanced process technologies. Presto's services — including package development, test solutions implementation and production, qualification and supply chain management — allow customers to reduce development time and risks through customizing industry-standard capabilities, choosing from a number of design platforms at GF. For higher-volume applications, customers can work with Presto to develop and source fully custom system-on-chips (SoCs).
"We are very pleased to join GlobalSolutions' Ecosystem as a Worldwide ASIC Partner," said Michel Villemain, CEO of Presto Engineering. "Together, we will provide an innovative, design-to-production implementation that will help customers deliver customized silicon solutions that satisfy increasing market needs for high performance and low power technologies. We believe that GF customers will benefit from our expertise in the test and development of solutions for IoT, analog, mixed signal, RF and secured applications."
Launched more than five years ago, GF's GlobalSolutions provides chip designers with experienced design enablement and turnkey services including chip design, methodology, test and packaging that enable customers to bring today's complex integrated circuits to market. The ecosystem combines the company's internal resources with a broad spectrum of partners to efficiently enable the fastest time-to-volume for foundry customers.
