Technological bricks
ID MOS makes available a catalog of standard circuits dedicated to specific application segments:
- Power Factor correction (PFC)
- RFID – Intelligent transponders in the UHF RF range
- Capacitive sensing drivers (Touch Screen devices)
- Standard circuits re-designed to address obsolescence issues
Those circuits are made available to our customers as such, but they may also be used as demonstrators to be used for further ASIC customizations.
That approach brings several benefits in the global development process:
- The key functions may be physically verified, removing the associated development risk
- Some pre-development target may be built, allowing software/hardware co-development
Intelligent energy management (PFC)
Power Factor Correction (PFC) eliminates most of the disturbance generated on the mains and controls the phase difference between the current and the voltage supplying the load, therefore seen as a pure resistor from the distribution network.

Redesign of standard IC
Standard components re-design to solve obsolescence problems.
On the basis of golden parts and the specification of the original component, ID MOS has the ability to re-design pin-to-pin replacements of obsolete products using up-to-date technologies, having the same function and form-factor. That approach is dedicated to catalog products and makes available for long years a “clone” of a component previously obsoleted (see below a list of available components developed in the course of that activity).
The methodology uses a validation on the target application through a mock-up board built around an FPGA, to be validated by our customers in their actual application environment.
The same approach may be used for FPGA portages or re-design of obsolete ASICs. The objective remains the same except that the input supplied by the customer may be much more comprehensive, including VHDL, netlists and test-bench. Please note that, in the specific case of FPGA portages, the re-programing feature cannot be available.
Such cloning of purely analog devices is also a possibility ID MOS may offer.
