PARTNERS

Our mission at Octavo is to make the design of electronic systems as easy as possible through our System-in-Package devices.  However, we know a lot more goes into a system than just what we integrate into our SiPs (at least for now).  To help out with all the other parts of the system we have coordinated with a group of trusted, experienced hardware, software, and system development partners who can help you get your design over the finish line.  Please feel free to reach out to any of the below companies or ask your Octavo Sales Representative to make an introduction.

Complex design and compressed time-to-market requirements are challenging; however, it can be even more challenging to augment your team with specialized knowledge and skills at the drop of a hat. DesignLinx can help.

As a top-tier Premier Partner to Xilinx, our FPGA Engineers are certified by Xilinx annually.  Our engineers act as an extension of your team, supplying knowledge and dedicated resources when and where you need them.

Services Offered:

  • Xilinx FPGA Design services: Methodology, Languages
  • Embedded Design (OS support, drivers, middleware, application, etc.)
  • Design Tools
  • Simulation/Verification
