Robust Chip Inc. operates in the semiconductor manufacturing space, focusing on electronic design automation and circuit simulation. Its software models how circuit operation interacts with fundamental semiconductor effects, providing designers with methods to analyze performance and reliability early in the design process. The company has developed LEAP, a layout methodology and related IP aimed at significantly reducing single-event soft error rates without meaningful penalties to speed, power, or area. The LEAP approach was developed with support from the Defense Threat Reduction Agency and is patent-pending. Based in Pleasanton, California, Robust Chip is a small team serving circuit and chip designers seeking accurate, efficient simulation capabilities. In December 2024, the company was acquired by JRC Integrated Systems, marking a change in ownership while preserving its core technology.
