Going Forward
Over the years, ICmic had successfully developed technologies that created several high value project-based businesses. These technologies prepare ICmic to expand the capability of systems design for various ICs’ demo-kits into several system products.
The current focus is on Agriculture Technology (“Agritech”). Going forward, ICmic is positioning itself to become the leader in this segment and in fact, has successfully released the Electronic Systems Products in Agritech, particularly for Smart Precision Farming (SPF). Similar with IC Design activity, the System Design technologies developed are owned by ICmic.
This achievement is the result from experiences and track records in the development of various Integrated Circuit, Semiconductor Process and Electronics Applications. At the same time, ICmic invested heavily in R&D creating its own Technology and Intellectual Property (IP) in the areas the company participate. ICmic is probably, the only company in Malaysia with system design capability in SPF with patent for ultra-low power design circuit in a Data Converter Design, IP for Soil-Moisture Sensor, and Smart Agri Systems Design.
The significant differentiations of having SPF system for fertigation-based crops compared to normal practices include higher yield, lower operational costs, higher intensity, and repeatability of the activities.
To achieve those objectives, ICmic has so far developed the following technologies:
- The Soil Moisture Sensor – a capacitive plate and the interface electronics.
- The Internet-Of-Things (IoT) for fast and accurate control of water & liquid fertilizer.
- The Auto-Seedlings for accurate high-volume seedlings.
- The Auto-Fertilizer-Mixer for accurate, fast, and less labour requirement.
- Various methodologies of specialized fertigation techniques.
The plan going forward is supported by ICmic technological achievements thus far that are made possible due to the followings:
- Ultra-Low-Power CMOS design capability
- Solar Cell Thin-Film Technology
- Mixed Signals ICs i.e., Digital-Analog-Converter & Analog Digital-Converter
- Radio Frequency [RF] ICs
- Single Chip Phone ICs
- Telecommunication product e.g., Single Line Telephone.
- Electronics systems’ design, diagnosis, maintenance & repair
- IC level design in digital, analog and mixed signals
- Utilization of Instrumentations, Probe, Measurement and Testing
- PCB level design with multilayers, diagnosis, and repair
- Interface board design
- Software and Firmware Development
- IT & Network.
