AnSem Sees Immediate Benefits of IC Mask Design's Master IC™ Training Programs
Bespoke course delivery exceeds expectations
Belgium: AnSem, a fabless semiconductor company designing state-of-the-art analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits, recently completed a customised training course made up of selected modules from IC Mask Design’s Master-IC™ layout programs.
The two 1-day seminars, ‘Block Level Layout’ and ‘Noise Isolation & Shielding’, were well suited to the activity carried out by AnSem’s layout team, and AnSem has benefited from further improvements to its industry-leading internal layout processes as a result.
On completion of the course, Mr. Erwin Janssens, Layout Engineer at AnSem, commented, “AnSem has always strived for perfection in the quality of layout produced and is continuing to lead the way with the help of Master-IC’s unique training modules.” Speaking about the Master-IC™ training courses, Fergal Brosnan, CEO of IC Mask Design, said, “We are seeing an increased demand for the customisation of our courses, with organisations mixing content from various modules to create a training program specific to their own unique requirements. In AnSem’s case, for example, we provided a focused training course that was directly relevant and provided immediate benefits.”
