Case Study – A Semiconductor Partner Chooses the Consolidated AutoPhi Handoff Over Multiple SKUs

A semiconductor company had already evaluated AutoPhi FUTURE for a forward-looking program. For their current, production-oriented track they wanted the full stack in one place: Light CPU, Quantum CPU, PCIe and MicroSDXC accelerators, RTL, synthesis, place-and-route, foundry-ready output. They did not want to assemble the picture from multiple products; they wanted one handoff, one set of terms—AutoPhi Modern.
The situation. The company had the foundry relationship and the integration capacity. They had seen the AutoPhi architecture (1 Light Trigger, color mathematics, quantum set) in the FUTURE evaluation. For the “current” package they wanted everything a semiconductor or HPC partner needs to evaluate and integrate AutoPhi in one place—consolidation, not a menu of SKUs. They needed to move quickly; fragmentation would slow them down.
What they did. They licensed AutoPhi Modern from Christopher Gabriel Brown: consolidated offering—Light CPU, Quantum CPU, PCIe and MicroSDXC accelerators—single handoff, production-oriented. They reviewed the technical narrative (1 Light Trigger, color-coded operations, 16-instruction quantum set, hybrid integration, accelerator family interfaces) and confirmed that the handoff included RTL, synthesis, place-and-route flows, and foundry-ready output. They confirmed terms: one finished product copy; IP not transferred unless separately agreed.
Outcome. The company moved to the next phase of foundry and integration discussion with a single reference package. They did not tape out in the case study period; the outcome was a clear “current” baseline and a single set of terms. They cited consolidation as the main value—one product, one handoff—and the consistency with the FUTURE evaluation. They referenced the full portfolio (18 products) for context.
Takeaway. When you need the full AutoPhi stack for current, production-oriented work, consolidation matters. AutoPhi Modern is the complementary object to AutoPhi FUTURE: same architecture family, current package, one handoff. The case study showed that the decision to proceed turned on having one place to engage.
