MICROIP continues its rapid advancement in AI and semiconductor innovation, leveraging its dual-engine strategy—custom ASIC design and AI software platform integration—to redefine chip design for edge computing.

Chairman Dr. James Yang notes that traditional hardware-centric IC design is increasingly cost-prohibitive for SMEs. By integrating AI-driven software with high-efficiency ASIC solutions, MICROIP enables parallel computing and optimizes resource utilization, significantly lowering development costs.

In the AIoT ecosystem, software-hardware synergy and AI computing platforms are now key drivers. Taiwan's semiconductor expertise is shaping the industry's next phase, and MICROIP is ready to lead this transformation!

As the semiconductor landscape evolves, MICROIP is committed to delivering cost-effective, high-performance chip solutions that empower businesses in IoT and AI applications.

The following is an excerpt from Commercial Times :“Integration of AI Software and Hardware: Chip Design Industry Strives for Breakthrough: MICROIP Establishes Dual-Engine Platform with ASIC and AI Software Design”:

The chip design industry has undergone significant changes over the years, with increasingly diverse end-user applications emphasizing functionality. The era dominated by a single IC solution has passed, replaced by platforms capable of integrating both hardware and software solutions. MICROIP (Listed in Taiwan: 7796) has established a dual-engine design platform comprising ASIC and AI software, proactively developing high-performance, low-power chip design solutions. Dr. James Yang, Chairman of MICROIP, noted that previously hardware-focused IC design approaches have become prohibitively costly for small and medium enterprises due to rapidly increasing fabrication complexity. By addressing challenges through software solutions, computing efficiency can be centralized, while peripheral ASICs distribute the workload of the primary chip, enabling parallel processing. Developing software platforms maximizes the utility of limited hardware resources. Dr. Yang believes the ASIC market holds immense potential. MICROIP's comprehensive platform will substantially reduce IC costs for SMEs and IoT applications tailored to specific needs. Coupled with proprietary AI software platforms, cost-effective and high-value ASIC solutions will emerge.
