ICsense develops custom ASICs and SoCs tailored to customer needs and market demands. With integrated digital design tools and a highly experienced engineering team, we ensure efficient, high-quality developments. Our services cover the full flow from RTL to GDSII, including::
Our world-class capabilities span digital and analog mixed-signal design for ASICs, SoCs, and embedded systems. From initial specification to mass production, we provide full custom development with a focus on reliability, performance, and scalability.
At ICsense, we’re taking custom IC design to the next level with our ASIP-based approach. An ASIP, or application-specific instruction-set processor, is a processor tailored for a specific application domain. This makes it perfect for running complex algorithms efficiently, whether in digital signal processing or cryptography.
Our process begins with an executable specification written in a high-level language. This allows us to fully verify the algorithm and quickly adapt to changes. Using modern software techniques, we translate this specification directly into optimized machine code for custom hardware. The result is a flexible, future-proof solution – updates and optimizations can be made in software, without the need for hardware redesign.
From DSP processors to AES-128 encryption engines, our ASIP methodology delivers performance and adaptability for the most demanding applications.

ICsense develops custom ASICs for next-generation neuromodulation implants. The ASIC can include a FSM (Finite-State-Machine) or a more flexible solution such as an ARM Cortex-M0 microprocessor, offering flexible and efficient control of stimulation parameters within a compact, ultra-low-power footprint. The implant is powered wirelessly, eliminating the need for batteries and enabling long-term use in the body. Designed under ISO 13485-certified processes, the ASICs meet stringent medical quality standards, ensuring safety and reliability.
ARM’s scalable Cortex-based architecture delivers high performance, energy efficiency, and strong ecosystem support, with mature tools and broad adoption making it a leading choice for commercial embedded solutions.
RISC-V’s open-source ISA provides flexibility, modularity, and transparency that drive innovation with a rapidly expanding ecosystem and major industry backing making it a disruptive, low-cost alternative to proprietary architectures.
OpenMSP430, an open-source version of TI’s MSP430 ISA, offers simplicity, deterministic behavior, and ultra-low-power efficiency, making it a lightweight open alternative for low-power embedded applications.
ICsense brings deep expertise in designing cryptographic processors for secure data encryption and decryption. Leveraging our ASIP-based design methodology, we develop application-specific processors that are precisely tailored to meet the unique requirements of each use case.
We specialize in integrating advanced encryption technologies into RFID and NFC systems. Our custom silicon solutions enable secure and reliable data exchange between tags and readers, safeguarding sensitive information against unauthorized access, cloning, and tampering.
By embedding lightweight cryptographic algorithms and secure key management directly into the chip architecture, we ensure optimized performance in low-power environments. This makes our solutions ideal for applications such as supply chain management, asset tracking, and secure authentication
We offer FPGA prototyping as a powerful tool to help our customers evaluate their ASIC designs in real-life environments before committing to custom high-performance silicon. This approach is especially valuable for applications that are difficult to simulate—such as those with long run times or where not all operational scenarios are fully understood. By enabling real-time interaction and performance assessment, FPGA prototyping allows customers to test and refine their systems with flexibility, including the ability to modify software on-the-fly. This ensures a smoother transition to final silicon, reducing risk and accelerating development cycle
