In the ASICxPress™ engagement model, Silicon Artist provides both IC design & supply chain consulting services to our customers. Customers perform the logic design and then provide Silicon Artist with a netlist and timing requirements. We will manage the entire process, from netlist handoff to setting up a supply chain for delivery of packaged, tested parts.

Silicon Artist's experienced design team takes responsibility for the physical implementation, and our seasoned supply chain operations consultants will oversee fabrication, assembly, test, and product engineering through prototype delivery, product qualification and production shipments.
