Description
Who is Codasip?
Codasip is a team of processor solutions experts uniquely helping developers to differentiate their products. Our rapidly growing team is spread across the world, with a large number of our engineers based in our original design center in Brno, Czechia.
Our engineering teams are across Europe in France, Germany, Greece, UK and Spain; with the sales team and a growing team of application engineers in the field extending our reach across USA, Japan, Korea and China.
We have already helped customers across the world to deploy billions of chips with our technology.
Being a Codasipper is all about making a difference
Codasip engineers are at the leading edge of a transformation in processor design, providing the most innovative companies on the planet with a proven alternative to the norm.
We help our customers to innovate because, in today’s technology market, differentiation is everything. And, in chip design, this difference is quite literally wafer thin. With increasing transistor costs, developers can no longer rely on semiconductor scaling and legacy processors to achieve their goals. The only way forward is to implement custom compute with designs tailored to our customers’ applications.
Our engineers deliver custom compute through the combination of the open RISC-V architecture, our Codasip Studio processor design automation and high-quality Codasip processor IP. This innovative approach means our engineers help technology companies easily customize and differentiate their designs. Our engineers, our technology and the Codasip approach makes possible some of the industry’s highest-performing, game-changing products that are truly transformational.
It’s time to take the leap and join Codasip.
As we say to our customers, come to Codasip and architect your ambition.
