Overview

In today's increasingly global market, Frontec participates in numerous projects throughout the world, including Scandinavia, Germany, France, Italy, and Australia. Frontec Microelectronics located in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Linköping, and Växjö is the largest player in the Scandinavian market for ASIC/FPGA design services. With more than fifty designers, Frontec Microelectronics provides its customers with professional design capabilities to shorten their time-to-market cycle.

The company has been in the hardware consulting business since 1981. The first Xilinx schematic design based on the Viewlogic tools was done in the beginning of 1987; HDL-based design for FPGAs and ASICs was started in 1989.

Frontec specializes in field programmable logic devices (FPGAs) and large complex customised devices (ASICs). To offer customers complete product design services other divisions within Frontec provide services in areas such as embedded software, board design, real-time OS, C, C++, and Java.
