Established in 2017, Agile Analog is rapidly transforming the semiconductor market through its automation of the design and delivery processes of analog intellectual property (IP) for microchips.
Before, chip designers had to use a limited range of one-size-fits-all analog IP products. Now, Agile Analog enables system-on-chip and application-specific integrated circuit manufacturers to configure bespoke analog IP to fit their application and silicon processes. This customisation has helped disrupt the semiconductor market and in 2021 led to a successful funding round of more than £13 million for the company.
Tim Ramsdale is the CEO of Agile Analog. Tim became an SME Leader in 2019 and says: “The programme has provided me with an excellent business coach who has helped me overcome some tricky commercial events while growing the company. I’ve found the courses useful too, especially those covering sales and strategic product development.”
Agile Analog is now looking to rapidly expand its workforce by growing its commercial and engineering support teams servicing the UK, North America and Asian markets. It has also created a number of industry partnerships that focus on different technologies and innovations.
One example is a new product that secures digital circuitry, preventing hackers bypassing security protection common on IoT (internet of things) products.
