Chip Manufacturers

For a project, I need to get hold of a manufacturer who can make electronic chips for me. I can't go in detail as it is a confidential project, but basically the chip has to operate a solenoid and has to be able to write some audit data to a memory element as well.

Vague at the moment I know, but I need to get some introductions to manufacturers first before I can explain the finer details ...

I used this company to design and build a PCB(http://www.solectron-ltd.co.uk/); perhaps they may be of help?
Not sure where you are but it says South East and this in in Fareham near Portsmouth.
Hope this helps

Didn't you ask for similar before?

Not this, no. I would need thousands of the little buggers ...

Thanks for the other suggestions, I am also going to speak to ARM as they are already a client of mine for a different application.
 
a NO TOUCH module, opens when its sunny, closes in the rain.... Bet you took GapTechs apart for ideas :D
 
Do you really need something totally bespoke?

When you take the masks into account, design and testing you are looking at far in excess of 25K to put a run through.

Try working with a uni and get them to design and put it on a multi project wafer.

Get in touch with these people for that sort of thing:

They'll hopefully point you in the right direction. otherwise you'll have to get hold of the design tools and PDK's

I work in the industry and know most universities and semiconductor companies in Europe if not the world - i work with many of them.

PM me with a bit more of an outline and i'll try and point you in the right direction.

Well i never thought id have a sensible work conversation on here!
 
Well, bespoke as in that I need to be able to communicate with the device and use info from it. Will drop you a pm in the morning as I probably need a few thousand of these units.

I have set up one meeting so far with a manufacturer tomorrow as well as I have no idea what can be done and what the cost per unit would be.
