RRP Venture Into Fabless Market With ASIC Design Acquisition

- Advertisement -

Aiming to scale automotive chip production and tap into a $100 million market in just two years, RRP Semiconductor enters the fabless market with ASIC design acquisition from Europe.

Maharashtra’s RRP Semiconductor recently announced acquiring the full intellectual property (IP) for application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) design from its European technology partners.

Marking its foray into the fabless semiconductor industry, this acquisition will allow the company to scale its production of automotive chips, with projections suggesting the market could grow from $25 million to over $100 million in just two years.

The IP transfer includes the full spectrum of ASIC development, from front-end design (RTL coding, verification, and synthesis) to back-end tasks such as DRC, LVS, extraction, and tape-out procedures. The acquisition also provides tools for electronic design automation (EDA), computing infrastructure, lab setups, and project management practices, such as risk assessment, documentation standards, and timeline control.

ASICs are custom-made integrated circuit chips designed for specific tasks, such as digital voice recorders and efficient video codecs. Today’s ASICs often combine microprocessors, ROM, RAM, EEPROM, and flash memory into a single system-on-chip (SoC) essential for high-end applications.

As the global ASIC market is expected to surpass $30 billion by 2031, this new capability strengthens RRP’s position, providing the company with advanced chip design and manufacturing skills. As per a report by the Hindu Businessline, these developments are expected to fuel notable growth in the semiconductor sector, addressing a gap in the market where many products are still imported.

RRP Semiconductor, already equipped with out­sourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) packaging and fab prototyping facilities, is now positioned as a fully integrated semiconductor solutions provider.

The newly acquired ASIC design capabilities will also allow RRP to offer tailored chip layouts to fabrication units for wafer production. The company estimates the automotive chip market could see substantial expansion, with revenue forecasts set to increase by more than 300 per cent over the next two years.
