Semiconductors
Brno Region is a semiconductor design powerhouse. Being home to Czech Semiconductor Centre and having rich background in electron microscopy as a key part of the supply chain, Brno is a ready to play a major role in the semiconductor ecosystem.
Czech Semiconductor Centre
In 2025, the Czech Semiconductor Centre (CSC) was launched in Brno. The centre, located in one of Europe’s strongest regions for chip design, focuses on supporting innovation, prototyping, and the growth of European fabless companies. As the Czech national competence centre under the European Chips Act, CSC aims to strengthen Europe’s semiconductor independence.Key competencies:
-
Wide bandgap semiconductors for power electronics.
-
RISC-V-EDA – deployment, demonstration, differentiation, customization, use cases, Cheri memory architecture.
-
Analytics tool – management of quality and efficiency in chip manufacturing.
- Artificial Intelligence in semiconductor manufacturing processes and applications (cybersecurity, biomedical and space chips, smart sensors).
-
Adaptive, Self-learning and low-power AI – basis for autonomous systems and applications such as next-generation loT and energy grids, aerospace and automotive, customized chips.
Semiconductor companies in Brno
At DYNANIC we specialize in building advanced data processing solutions by utilizing powerful FPGA technology integrated directly into Smart Network Interface Cards (SmartNICs). Our flagship product is the DYNANIC Solution which provides businesses with significantly accelerated and efficient network processing capabilities.
The Brno design center was founded in the late nineties as the Belgian branch of Alcatel Microelectronics. In 2002, Alcatel Microelectronics merged with AMI Semiconductor. Then in March 2008, ON Semiconductor obtained the design center through the acquisition of AMIS and further developed its activities in the development of digital-analog circuits, mainly for the automotive industry.
