siXis has created the next generation of embedded computing modules that pave the way for smaller, higher performing, scalable and lighter electronics that use less power. siXis' patent-pending approach uses Silicon Circuit Board (SiCB) technology, which combines bare-die and packaged components on large-area silicon substrate, providing superior size, weight and power characteristics in an industry-standard BGA package. Using a number of variations, including different CPUs, FPGAs, memory and oscillators, siXis custom embedded computing modules deliver higher performance in a smaller, energy efficient package for a diverse group of markets including communications, high-performance computing, networking, medical imaging, test and measurement, aerospace and defense.
