Mistral offers specialized silicon validation and silicon bring-up services that help silicon companies test and bring-out new/upcoming silicon in the shortest time frame possible at the best optimized cost. We help silicon vendors reduce the time spent on silicon bring-up which in turn helps them get the new chipset to the customers faster.

Silicon Bring-up Services

Working with semiconductor companies on their new and upcoming silicon has helped Mistral build vast expertise in silicon bring-up and silicon validation services. Many of methodologies that were earlier considered as post-silicon verification has undergone a shift. They are now part of the pre-silicon function. The bring up of software very often starts long before the silicon tape-out on virtual models or FPGA prototypes. Mistral offers a range of silicon bring-up services for silicon vendors and early adopters of SoCs include pre- and post-silicon bringup, firmware and HAL development, Reference Designs, Performance Validation and Product Development. Our silicon bring-up services team has rich experience in bringing up various peripherals like USB, GBE, PCI, A/V and UART on silicon samples and evaluation platforms.
