ItoM is a mixed-signal IC design company. Founded in 1998 by 4 former R&D and business executives of Philips Research & Semiconductors, pioneering the integration and performance in broadcast tuners (TDA7000) and RF transceiver fields. ItoM has a unique track record of innovations with focus on RF transceivers and broadcast tuners. ItoM has offices in Eindhoven (headquarters) and Enschede, The Netherlands.

Architecture

ItoM offers a wide variety of design services. Typical services include designing and integrating key IP blocks, System on Chip (SoC) and more analog centric Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC). Often we design products that become part of our customer portfolio. However, we also develop IP on our own initiative.

Design and implementation

Cadence and MathWorks tools are used to study the effect of the architectural choices. Proprietary design tools are used for the estimation of size and power consumption. However, during this phase, extensive experience is the most important tool to be used.

Validation and Industrialization

For most of our projects we use an analog on top (AoT) flow. Our implementations use most industry standard tool flows.
