Bring your Talent and Skills to the Microchip IP Engineering Team

Microchip Technology Inc. is a leading provider of embedded control applications. Our product portfolio comprises general purpose and specialized 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit microcontrollers, 32-bit microprocessors, field-programmable gate array (FPGA) products, a broad spectrum of high-performance linear, mixed-signal, power management, thermal management, radio frequency (RF), timing, safety, security, wired connectivity, and wireless connectivity devices, as well as serial Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM), Serial Flash memories, Parallel Flash memories, and serial Static Random Access Memory (SRAM). We also license Flash-IP solutions incorporated in a broad range of products.

Microchip FPGA Business unit offers an extensive portfolio of low and mid-range density FPGAs that lead the industry in their low power consumption, reliability, and security capabilities. Designing with Microchip FPGAs, SoC FPGAs and radiation tolerant FPGAs allow you to meet high-bandwidth connectivity and high-data throughput your applications need.

We in the IP Engineering group work on delivering end-to-end IP from the specification, design, verification to validating it on our FPGA platforms.

The IP Engineering group (Microchip FPGA BU) is responsible for delivering the Soft IP’s as part of the FPGA ecosystem and is available through Libero software. The huge set of catalog IP’s enables the customers to build complex optimal designs, reducing the total risk and increasing the time to market in areas such as high-speed serial protocols, DSP, memory controllers, PHY IP’s, avionics, bridges, areas of functional safety for our Microchip FPGA products.
