Build · Test · FPGA Production or ASIC Path
From a simple prompt to a device-locked bitfile.
Type one or two sentences. SIGPT handles the engineering, using our 140+ IPs and, if you have it, your own proven IP: IP selection, integration, synthesis, implementation, timing and bitfile generation, plus matching firmware if your design includes a RISC-V. You test on real boards in the Remote FPGA Lab, then license it for FPGA production or take the ASIC path.
Conceptual illustration
What happens, step by step.
A RISC-V in the prompt adds a firmware track.
When SIGPT finds a RISC-V processor in your prompt, it starts a second track alongside the hardware. It uses the same spec to generate firmware that matches, then delivers both together.
- 02Dissect
The prompt's behaviour is split into hardware functions and software tasks.
- 03–04Select and integrate
As the RTL is wired up, the memory map, interrupts and clocks are fixed. The firmware uses the same values.
- 04bGenerate firmware
Boot code, board support, drivers for each selected IP, an optional RTOS and the application, compiled for your RISC-V grade.
- 06Deliver
A device-locked bitfile and a matching firmware image, with sources and build files.
- 07Validate
Boot both together on a Remote Lab board and check the console.
Firmware uses credits based on its complexity and code length. See pricing →
Your proven logic runs through the same flow.
Already have proven IP or custom logic? Upload it encrypted to a private vault. From then on it moves through every step alongside our IP, as a sealed block that SIGPT connects but never opens.
- 00Upload once
Encrypted RTL or netlist, plus its interface and constraints, goes into a vault only your organisation can access.
- 01Prompt
Name your block in the prompt, like
connect my_filter_v3 to the host over PCIe
. - 03Select IP
SIGPT picks catalogue IP around your block. It doesn't duplicate what you already have.
- 04Integrate
Your ports are checked against AXI4, AXI4-Lite, AXI4-Stream, AHB or APB, and the glue logic is generated around them.
- 05–06Build and deliver
The whole design is synthesised, timed and locked to your device. Reports never show your block's internals.
- 07Validate
Run your own tests on a real board in the Remote FPGA Lab.
Two milestones
A bitstream is not a validated design.
Bitstream generated
Built and timing-closed for your FPGA.
Proves it builds.Board validation
Runs on a real board and passes your tests.
Proves it works.Ambiguity is a question, not a guess.
We ask
Missing details get a specific question.
We flag it
Out-of-scope needs go to engineering review.
We check the board
Link speeds and PHYs must match the hardware.
Bring a requirement. We’ll take it from there.
Stages 01 to 08 are available today: build, Remote Lab testing and licensing on supported AMD Xilinx targets.
