Indian ESDM [Electronic System Design & Manufacturing] A National Imperative

---

• A Huge Domestic Market needs Domestic Industry

• A $300 Billion/Year Opportunity to Create Many Jobs

• A Successful Industry Requires SoCs to be

  • Designed in India

  • Manufactured in India

Did India Miss The Bus?

• SoC Design is Complex and Competitive

  • SDA (System Design Automation) offers an Inflection Point and a Window of Opportunity for New Players

• SoC Manufacturing is Capital Intensive and Competitive

  • State of the art - 10nm

  • Most SoCs use 28nm or 45nm

A Way Forward

• Design New Products Optimized for Indian Market Needs using SDA

• Example: A book reader tablet optimized for students from 2nd-4th grades retailing at Rs. 1800 bundled with e-books, direct DC charge from Solar

• Create processor and SoC architectures for such designs (Dreamchip Siddhi) using SDA

Next Steps

• Create a Fab + Fabless Partner Program

• Development of Few Select Device Optimized SoCs (Dreamchip Siddhi Vani Sandesh)

• Establish an EMC for Select Devices

• Enable Market Driven “SDA => Design => Fabricate => Manufacture” ecosystem

• Create Employment, Build a Knowledge Driven Society and Spread Prosperity
