Since 1994 · Waterloo, Ontario

Simulation software for the physics under the chip.

Siborg builds process, device and heat-transfer simulators used by process engineers, device physicists and the universities that train them — from a first 2D diffusion profile to a 1,000,000-node 3D mesh.

Two tools, one physics stack

Each product ships as a standalone license — pick the simulator that matches the problem, not a bundle you don't need.

MicroTec v4.23 · TCAD

Two-dimensional semiconductor process & device simulator

A versatile TCAD tool built for process and device engineers who aren't full-time TCAD specialists. Ease of use and robustness have made it a standard aid in university courses on semiconductor technology and device physics.

About

Three decades of computational physics, still based in Waterloo

Siborg was established in February 1994. Our objective hasn't changed since: development and production of engineering and scientific software, built by people who have spent 30+ years inside semiconductor process and device simulation.

MicroTec alone has been adopted by more than 30 companies and 130 universities across 27+ countries — including teams at Hitachi, General Electric and NTT, and simulation courses at UC Berkeley and Waseda University.
