About the Company
ITDA Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
ITDA Semiconductor Co., Ltd. is a South Korea–based semiconductor design automation startup founded in 2022 and headquartered in Hwaseong-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea.
The company focuses on no-code semiconductor system design solutions, enabling engineers to design complex system-on-chip (SoC) power and clock systems without writing traditional code.
Mission & Vision
ITDA Semiconductor's mission is to streamline and automate the traditionally complex and manual semiconductor design process by providing intuitive no-code tools that boost productivity and reduce development time.
By simplifying SoC system design, the company aims to address the global semiconductor talent shortage, improve design productivity, and accelerate chip development cycles — a strategic advantage as advanced chips become increasingly complex.
Core Products & Technologies
ITDA Semiconductor offers a suite of no-code design tools under the Canvas product family that automate key aspects of SoC system design:
Power Canvas
A no-code generative system IP for full-custom SoC power systems, reducing design time and supporting energy-optimized chip architectures.
Clock Canvas
A no-code tool for SoC clock system design, helping with dynamic power reduction and timing optimization without manual coding.
DFT Canvas
A no-code solution for design-for-test (DFT) and IO system design automation.
Together, these tools are designed to automatically generate critical deliverables such as constraint files and DFT outputs — enabling up to approximately 25% faster tape-out cycles compared to traditional approaches.
Technology Advantages
No-code Design
Empowers systems and chip designers to construct complex SoC building blocks via visual interfaces instead of manual code, significantly reducing engineering time and risk.
Automation & IP Generation
Automates the creation of essential semiconductor design assets such as power networks, clock trees, and DFT structures.
Productivity Boost
Helps tackle labor shortages and enhances design productivity in an industry where expert engineers are in high demand.
