Open IP: ADI's Groundbreaking Customer Engagement Approach
ADI Engineering was founded in 1990 on a progressive model of Open IP that is the cornerstone of our entire customer engagement approach. Unlike traditional Single Board Computer (SBC) vendors and ODMs who open up their design IP only under extreme conditions, for nearly 20 years ADI has built its business based on a unique model of IP openness and customer-directed manufacturing - even for our off-the-shelf SBC products. By fundamentally re-balancing the "Build-or-Buy" decision and the benefits of design customization at all production volumes, Open IP is a powerful asset to ADI's customers:
Eliminate single-vendor lock-inRemove third-party SBC vendor dependencies and protect against supply line disruptionsAssure lowest cost of production across all volumesReduce R&D expenditures and time to marketBenefit from best-in-class commercial SBC products even when customers prefer to do their own engineering and manufacturingIn the following two-part series of whitepapers, we examine in detail ADI's unique Open IP model and how OEMs and system integrators can use it better balance key issues in their product development projects.
