10 | Acquisition International, January 2025 Leading-Edge Physical IP Solutions For almost a decade, DXCorr Design Inc. has been a pioneer in the field of IP solutions, leading the charge when it comes to both design and results. Working towards its mission of designing the best embedded physical IP the world has ever seen, this innovative firm is bucking the trend of executing physical design relating to foundry IPs by designing deep submicron integrated units and fully customised very-large-scale integration (VLSI) analogue and digital circuits, resulting in it being recognised with the title of Most Innovative Physical IP Development Firm 2025 – USA. Contact: Nirmalya Ghosh Company: DXCorr Design Inc. Web Address: https://www.dxcorr.com/ In a world where there is a mobile phone in almost every pocket and a smartwatch on nearly every wrist, every tech business strives to deliver the best PPAL (power, performance, area, and leakage-key metrics) across its chips in the least amount of time possible. Where others simply try, DXCorr goes beyond the capabilities of its competitors in the VLSI space to rise to the challenge and deliver, even when this means developing purposebuilt in-house tools to exceed even the most demanding specifications for client projects. Designing and building equipment that operates in the furthest reaches of possibility in this space, DXCorr delivers unprecedented performance and power efficiency for every industry thanks to its game-changing circuits. From the base-level IPs and standard cells used by almost every physical design firm through to bespoke designs for more niche and specialised systems, the firm’s physical IP arrangements – which it embeds in a series of state-of-the-art process hubs – boast a variety of clever system-on-chip (SoC) designs. From the aforementioned standard cells right through to its IP-SRAMs, CAMS, multiports, and memory subsystems, DXCorr’s unique designs benefit from the firm’s hardware and software prowess, ensuring consistent excellence across both the chip design and delivery processes. Underpinning this commitment to excellence with specific custom blocks and a remarkable team of physical designers, this is a firm capable of moving the needle and going the extra mile, all without ever letting its worldleading standards slip. Driving DXCorr is an encompassing design philosophy which sees computer-aided design potential blended with the algorithmic science of IP deployment. Leveraging the strengths of this overarching philosophy, the firm is able to offer the best PPAL – optimised further through the likes of reduced iteration cycles – to provide a series of unsurpassed physical IP solutions. An encompassing portfolio, DXCorr’s designs are the ‘building blocks’ of SoC, with its customers achieving results greater than they could have expected. On the back of such a comprehensive service, it should come as no surprise to learn that the last decade has played host to the sale of billions of chips fitted with DXCorr’s physical IPs, with its key customers also being some of the biggest companies on the planet – such as Google, Samsung, and Intel. These organisations have benefited from the hundreds of full-custom physical IPs designed by the firm, as well as the more than 60 full chip tape-outs that have also been executed since DXCorr opened its doors in 2006. Not one to dwell too much on the past, no matter how impressive its accomplishments in it may be, DXCorr is seeking to further push the envelope concerning performance in 2025. It is doing this in a number of different ways, such as using its in-house software to carry out a variety of testing processes, without having to spend a fortune on the silicon that is used in chip creation. This software makes the firm confident that it is only the only business of its kind that is capable of crafting best-inclass, industry-specific chips. Immensely proud to be perhaps the last independent refuge for the art of fullcustom physical design – once known as semiconductor design in the days before creating chips became akin to building LEGO – DXCorr recognises that this industry is lacking the creativity that it was once renowned for. Seeking to inject some of this back into the field with solutions that are truly optimised, not just designed for use with any old chip, this is a firm innovating when it comes to the likes of 7, 5, and 3nm advanced process nodes. With DXCorr Design Inc. being named as the Most Innovative Physical IP Development Firm 2025 – USA, this pioneering business in the heart of Silicon Valley that is no stranger to awards and acclaim is certain to continue to encounter success as it moves the needle even further, this thanks to its deep engineering expertise and best-in-class tools and processes.
