ChipDesignWorks

ChipDesignWorks is a Dutch electronic design automation company founded in 2001 that develops ProMOST, a desktop calculator for analog and RF circuit designers to estimate transistor bias settings and device sizes in real time without requiring a separate run command. The software supports various models including MOS11, PSP, and BSIM families while running background solvers on Linux and macOS platforms to accelerate initial dimensioning and bottleneck analysis for major electronics companies worldwide.

• Products: ProMOST is a single-transistor sizing tool featuring add-ins for distortion, RF, small-signal, and switched-capacitor configurations that ships with detailed update logs containing bug fixes and new features.
• Industries: The software serves analog and mixed-signal integrated circuit design sectors by optimizing dimensions one-by-one rather than solving complex non-linear problems simultaneously to ensure faster simulation runs.
• Operations: ChipDesignWorks was established in 2001 by two researchers with deep backgrounds in circuit design who believe intuitive tools built for designers significantly boost productivity and quality.

The company continues to refine its philosophy that the right EDA tools, designed specifically for engineers, make all the difference in achieving superior circuit performance.
