Embedded Systems

Embedded VLSI Embedded Systems Division (“ESD”) designs, develops and delivers Embedded Solutions and Services to customers in Telecom, Law & Defense, Automotive, and Consumer Electronics sectors. We provide innovative product design services including complete system design, software and hardware implementation, verification and testing.

Our design and implementation services for multimedia solutions such as Digital Signal Processing (DSP), Image Processing, Video Processing, Audio and Video Recording, Audio and Video Playback, Codec Development, GPS Integration, WLAN and Bluetooth Integration.

Our expertise ranges across various processor families and hardware platforms, such as:

• Processor Families: ARM, ADSP, TI OMAP, TI DaVinci, MIPS and FreeScaleiMX
Series
• GUI Development: Qt, OpenGL, OpenVG, MiniGUI and Android GUI framework
• RTOS and Mobile Hardware: VxWorks, QNX, BMP, ucLinux, RTX, uCOS III and Android
Our projects involved development based on hardware target platforms involving Beagle, DaVinci Processors, FreeScaleSabreLite and Atheros Wireless System on Chips. We are currently providing development and Testing Services in LSP (Linux support Packages), BSP (Board Support Packages) and applications supporting Digital Video Mirrors, DVRs and other Embedded Multimedia products. We also develop Qt Applications targeted at Embedded Products.

VLSI: Development

Very-large-scale integration (VLSI) is a process of combining thousands of transistors into a single chip, development of complex semiconductor and communication technologies.

A VLSI device commonly known is the microcontroller. Before VLSI, most ICs had limited functions. An electronic circuit usually consists of a CPU, ROM, RAM and other peripherals on one board. VLSI lets IC designers add all of these into one chip. Let’s look into the back-story of VLSI development before going into specifics.

VLSI has many advantages

The increase in density happens through multiple developments. Some of which would be a reduction in size, management in power consumption among others

• Reduces the size of circuits
• Reduces the effective cost of the devices
• Increases the operating speed of circuits
• Requires less power than discrete components
• Higher reliability
• Occupies a relatively smaller area

Let’s look into the design basics to understand some of the basics of VLSI working.
