August 12, 2025 | EnSilicaEstimated reading time: 1 minute
EnSilica is establishing of a new design centre in Budapest, Hungary.
The facility strengthens EnSilica’s presence in the European Union and taps into Budapest’s deep technology ecosystem, which hosts numerous leading automotive and industrial multinationals. This expansion will increase the Group’s global headcount to around 210 employees.
By the end of September 2025, the Budapest team will comprise 16 experienced engineers, many with 10 to 20 years’ expertise in mixed-signal chip design. Their technical excellence and collaborative approach are closely aligned with EnSilica’s culture and growth strategy.
The centre will focus on developing advanced mixed-signal designs for industrial and automotive applications, providing additional EU-based design capacity to support recent design wins and a strong pipeline of opportunities.
EnSilica’s operations now span four UK engineering design centres in Abingdon, Sheffield, Bristol, and Cambridge, alongside international facilities in Bangalore (India), Porto Alegre and Campinas (Brazil), and Budapest (Hungary).
Ian Lankshear, Chief Executive Officer of EnSilica, commented: “We are delighted to establish a base in Budapest, a city which has rapidly become a key technology hub in the EU. EnSilica continues to attract exceptionally talented engineers at a time when there is a significant global talent shortage, and this strategic move will allow us to further strengthen our position in our focused market segments to ensure we are ideally placed to capitalise on exciting near-term growth opportunities.”

Getting Our ‘Fil’ of Design Constraint Techniques
08/07/2025 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007 MagazineFilbert Arzola is a principal electrical engineer at Raytheon SAS and an instructor who teaches one of the few classes (that I know of) that focuses on setting design constraints. I asked Fil to share his thoughts on design constraints: the factors involved, the various trade-offs, and his best practices for optimizing constraints for your particular design. As Fil says, “Everything about a PCB is a constraint.”
