Certus Semiconductor’s digital I/O solutions are capable of meeting many GPIO/ODIO standards including I2C, I3C, SPI, JECDEC CMOS, eMMC, LPDDR, SMBUS, DDC/DEC, ECEL,GTL, RGMII2, SPDIF and many more.



Certus Semiconductor has silicon-proven libraries in TSMC, GlobalFoundries, and Samsung processes. These libraries can be licensed off-the-shelf or can be customized for your specific application, and are available as full libraries or on a cell-by-cell basis.
We have experience consulting in Intel, TowerJazz, DongBu HiTek, UMC, pSemi, Silanna, Lfoundry, Silterra, TSI, XFab, and Vanguard processes.



Certus Semiconductor offers the following design services
• RF/Analog Circuit Characterization and Design
• Liberty Timing Modeling
• IBIS Models for I/O’s
• Custom Standard Cell Libraries
• I/O Library/Padring Integrated Oscillators, Voltage Regulators and PLL’s



Certus Semiconductor leverages the deep experience of its advanced RF/Analog design team to build several advanced RF and Analog individual circuit components as well as full wireless transceivers. Our team has designed advanced transceivers that have shipped 3B+ units in several process nodes, and has 25+ patents in RF and Analog designs. We can architect your RF/Analog design project, provide ready-to-integrate IPs, and build custom designs to accelerate your project development.
