Welcome to Blendics

Blendics, Inc. is a Saint Louis, Missouri based company formed in 2007 to provide System-on-Chip (SoC) design services to companies that wish to develop complex, proprietary, low-power integrated circuits.

Blendics provides design tools and design services for the creation of complex system-on-chip (SoC) integrated circuits.  The tools are MetaACE and ClosureACE. 

MetaACE makes it possible to simulate and measure circuit behavior in metastability with greater ease and accuracy than previously possible.  Metastability is an SoC failure mode of increasing importance as the industry moves to deep sub-micron designs. 

ClosureACE is a suite of tools facilitating the design of an Asynchronous Network-on-Chip (ANoC) that easily and reliably connects traditionally clocked objects eliminating the need for timing closure.  ClosureACE can reduce traditional design cycles by eliminating more than 95% of the global verification process while improving the robustness of the design.  This has a dual positive impact of reducing both design costs and time to market.
