Case Studies

Dukosi specialises in full custom IC design - it's what we do. Because of this, our "off-the-shelf" team can be up to speed quickly on new projects, employing tried and trusted tools and techniques so that you can be assured of a successful outcome. The investment we make in expertise and tools is spread over many projects. The net result is that you benefit from:

  • Reduced project risk and development time
  • Lower fixed overheads
  • Improved predictability of costs and schedules
  • Faster time-to-market
  • Increased return on investment (ROI)

Case Study 1

A multinational contract R&D firm engaged Dukosi due to our expertise in RFIC design and wireless communications. For an investment in consulting services of $140k our client was able subsequently to increase their revenues by $3.3m over a 2 year period.

Case Study 2

A start-up company specialising in micro-displays required silicon back-planes (including controller and driver circuitry) to be designed for their products. This was not a core competence for the company, and outsourcing allowed the client to focus on its core technology, without the need to build, equip and maintain a design team which would be under-utilised. Dukosi was able to deliver right first time designs on schedule and within budget, and saved the client $800k net (in operating costs) over 2 years.

Case Study 3

A silicon design consultancy did not have analogue/mixed-signal design skills in-house, and could not have built a suitable team quickly enough. Partnering with Dukosi allowed the client to win a contract they would otherwise have been unable to fulfil, and increase their sales by $2.4m over 2 years, representing an annual ROI of 97%.

Case Study 4

A medical device manufacturer required a reduction in the Bill of Materials for one of its products. The Dukosi solution increased the product's gross margin to 76% (from 20%), covered development costs within 3 months of sales, and delivered BoM savings of $1.2m per year (representing an ROI of 350% in the first year).
