Compiler engineering services

Theobroma Systems offers development, customization, optimization, and support services for compilers and toolchains, solving the challenges imposed by modern embedded processors.

Compiler and toolchain engineering for embedded platforms

As the complexity of embedded processors increases, the quality and feature requirements imposed on the associated toolchain (i.e., optimizing compiler, linker, profiler, debugger) represent a critical influence on the success of embedded development projects and a differentiating factor for semiconductor solutions. Particularily, the appearance of digital-signal processing features, multi-threading, and multi-core designs raise new opportunities and new challenges for compilers and toolchains.

Our engineers provide first-class compiler experience for efficient compilation and optimized development toolchains both to semiconductor vendors and to systems integrators. Thus, we help to tap into the hidden potential of the development toolchain and turn an inconvienient necessity into an added value.

Our services for semiconductor vendors

For semiconductor vendors we provide:

  • compiler and toolchain development, customization and optimization;
  • outsourced support and maintenance for toolchains;
  • analysis of performance bottlenecks and compiler-tuning;
  • consulting on development tool strategy;
  • consulting on instruction set and processor evolution;
  • consulting on coprocessor design and selection.

Our services for systems integrators and board/module vendors

For systems integrators and board vendors we provide:

  • application-specific optimization of compilers and development tools;
  • customization of compilers and addition of performance intrinsics;
  • customization of compilers to integrate external coprocessors.
