Efabless offers a crowd platform for chip design that uses open source and community models to make the design and commercialization of ICs simple, inexpensive, and accessible to everyone. Product developers use this platform to rapidly, cost-effectively, and reliably create custom silicon. Chip developers use the solution to dramatically reduce cost and time to market for proof of concept of new and exciting ICs.

Efabless just launched the chipIgnite program to provide developers a pre-designed carrier chip including a RISC-V processor and subsystem along with ten square millimeters of silicon for customization. It is a good fit for users who want to create an initial prototype or proof-of-concept for an IP block or full SoC. The starting price is $9,750.
