IC supply chain services · Est. 2005

Your IC operations partner, from first concept to volume production.

ICleviathan manages the entire silicon flow for startups, system houses and defense programs (design, manufacturing, assembly, test, qualification and failure analysis) under one accountable partner.

Authorised agent for iST (Taiwan), CoAsia SEMI (Korea) and NanoZeta (Greece).

01
Who we work with

Three kinds of company, one kind of problem

Whether you are taping out for the first time or keeping a part alive for a decade, the difficulty is the same: the flow crosses five vendors and somebody has to own it. Procurement and NPI managers get the numbers they need in the capability index below.

Chip startups

You are taping out, and you have no operations team

You need someone to run the whole chain, mapping which vendors genuinely fit the requirement, holding the specification and the schedule, and staying accountable through to volume, so your engineers stay on the product.

What you getThe full process mapped, the partners named, and a human being who answers.

System houses

You need a reliability lab without building one

Qualification, failure analysis and the full AEC-Q family, on demand. We book the slot at iST, escalate when the schedule moves, and translate the report into something your team can act on.

What you getThe precise laboratory capability list: AEC-Q, JESD47, FIB and board level reliability.

Defense programs

You need a supplier that will still exist in ten years

An Israeli company with a proven record, working with tier-1 principals under a formal agency agreement, and with obsolescence and continuity treated as part of the job, not an afterthought.

What you getFounded 2005, based in Ramat Gan, named references, and one accountable contact.

02
What we do

Six capabilities, one accountable partner

We hold the relationships, the specifications and the schedule, so your team can stay on the product. Every engagement is run end to end by people who have shipped silicon before.

IC Qualification & Failure Analysis

Reliability assurance from component to system level, JESD47 and the full AEC-Q automotive family, plus non-destructive, electrical and physical failure analysis.

  • Reliability assurance
  • Automotive qualification
  • Failure & material analysis
  • FIB circuit edit
iST Taiwan

Board Level Reliability

Component-level qualification proves the part. It does not prove the solder joint that attaches it to your board, and that joint is where a great many field returns start.

  • Temperature cycling, IPC-9701
  • Board level drop, JESD22-B111
  • Cyclic bend, JESD22-B113
  • Dye-and-pry & cross-section
CoAsia SEMI

Digital IC Design

Turnkey concept-to-silicon: system architecture, physical design down to the 3 nm node, OSAT and 2.5D packaging, test, RTL and BSP software, wafer procurement and delivery logistics.

  • System architecture
  • Physical design to 3 nm
  • RTL & BSP software
  • OSAT & 2.5D packaging
NanoZeta

Analog & RF Design

Analog and mm-wave IC design across process nodes from 0.18 µm to 5 nm. Designs already proven in silicon range from short-range wireless at 2.4 GHz up to 76–81 GHz automotive radar.

  • Full transceiver design
  • PLL & frequency synthesis
  • RF & mm-wave front-ends
  • High-speed interfaces
Vendor selection

IC Assembly

We choose the assembly house and the package with you, weighing capability, yield risk and unit cost, then stay on the line through qualification builds.

  • Package selection
  • OSAT qualification
  • Wire bond & flip chip
  • 2.5D & advanced packaging
Samples to volume

IC Manufacturing

Support at every stage of the manufacturing cycle, from first engineering samples through ramp and sustained high-volume production.

  • Engineering samples
  • Volume ramp
  • Supply chain management
  • Obsolescence & continuity

The full IC operations flow

We stay with the part through every handoff

Six stages, five vendors, and one company answering for the date. The handoffs are where schedules usually break, and they are the reason this role exists.

Laboratory capability

Knowing which tool to reach for is the job

There are over a hundred IC failure modes. Everything here is available to our customers through iST, a laboratory that international brands use as their independent quality authority.

The company

A small team that behaves like part of yours

ICleviathan is an Israeli IC supply chain company, established in 2005. We specialise in managing our customers' IC operations across the entire flow cycle, for startups, system companies and defense organisations.

We are deliberately agile. We sit down with each customer to work out which vendors genuinely fit the requirement, keep the channel open between customer, vendor and our own experts, and stay accountable for the outcome rather than the handoff.
