The Indian chip design industry, including Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) design, plays a pivotal role in the Electronics System Design and Manufacturing (ESDM) ecosystem. Driven by the increasing demand for consumer electronic goods, a rapidly expanding telecom and networking market, and the widespread adoption of portable and wireless products, the semiconductor design industry in India is flourishing. With the presence of the top 25 semiconductor companies, India has firmly established itself on the global semiconductor map.

Pruthvi-3 by Saankhya Labs: Building on the foundation laid by its predecessor, the Pruthvi-1 chip launched in 2015, the Pruthvi-3 is a significant advancement in chip design. It can be utilized across a range of communication applications, including mobile devices, broadcast television, satellite communications, and defence communications. This fully programmable, multi-standard chipset supports next-generation broadcast standards and offers unparalleled versatility.

Available in multiple package options (SL3000 and SL4000), the Pruthvi-3 enables live broadcast TV on mobile devices and facilitates video offload services from mobile networks to broadcast networks. Manufactured using the cutting-edge 28-nm (nanometre) FDSOI (Fully Depleted Silicon On Insulator) process, the Pruthvi-3 supports advanced Physical Layer functionality, making it ideal for emerging technologies such as 5G, Machine Learning (ML), and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Furthermore, Saankhya Labs is pioneering a revolutionary concept called 5G Broadcast, which seamlessly integrates 5G technology with ML, setting new benchmarks in the industry.
