Welcome to CertiChip

CertiChip is a Canadian semiconductor intellectual property (IP) company specializing in circuit techniques and architectures to improve the robustness of integrated circuits (ICs) manufactured in advanced CMOS processes at or below 90 nanometers. CertiChip has developed and patented cost-effective methods of providing protection against radiation-induced soft errors in devices where speed, memory capacity and reliability are of critical importance. These circuit techniques apply to both memory and logic elements, they do not require any special processing, and have been demonstrated to achieve a greater than 50X reduction in soft error rates at a relatively low cost when compared to traditional solutions. CertiChip is continuing to develop and patent new circuit techniques to improve the robustness of SRAM's at 40nm and below in a cost effective manner.

Licensing

CertiChip engages with potential customers to help them solve their problems before they happen. Once the problem has been defined and a suitable CertiChip solution has been identified we execute a patent license agreement to give you access to the technology. At that point we engage with your design engineering teams to assist them in incorporating CertiChip's technology into your product(s).

Products

CertiChip currently has a broad range of solutions for soft error mitigation in both SRAMs and flip-flops. We also have SRAM technology available that reduces the number of transistors required while maintaining performance. For more information, visit our product catalogue.
