Why do you have a FAQ page?
This page is here because we know that as we work largely in stealth mode there will be some people who are curious about what we do and where we are headed. Although we can't divulge everything (at this point we have to protect our intellectual property) we can certainly address some of the common questions we have been asked.
How do you pronounce "Trilicon"?
It's clear to us that there are two types of people in this world--those who know semiconductors and those who don't. Those who do pronounce the "tri" with a soft "i," rhyming the word with "silicon." Note that the word is silicon (the element) and not silicone (polysiloxane). Everyone else pronounces the "tri" with a hard "i," like the word "try." The semiconductor folks are correct. The pronunciation is "trill-ih-con."
Will you do anything for money?
We won't do anything for money. But there are some things we will do on a contract basis, like providing business and/or technical advice to technology businesses or electronic system / integrated circuit design projects. Heck, we've even acted as interim CEO for small businesses needing help. If you need assistance and would like to talk about a consulting services project please get in touch with us using the contact page or email [email protected]. Please provide a brief description of the help you're looking for and we'll get back to you to discuss available options.
I'd like to invest in Trilicon. What options do I have?
First off, thank you for your interest! We know that our website (intentionally) does not focus on the technical details of what we do, so you must know someone on the Trilicon team if you're asking this question. If you want to know more about investing in Trilicon, just send an email to [email protected] and we'll be in touch. Keep an eye out for the TriliCoinTM cryptocurrency token we've developed (if we ever decide to release it).
Hey I know you people! I'd love to work for you. What should I do?
As with most fledgling companies, our hiring plans are dictated largely by our financial constraints. However, at this early stage we can always use additional expertise in both analog and digital design, especially if you are great with SystemVerilog and RTL for synthesis. If you know us and want to help us get off the ground let us know. Further down the road we will be looking for chip design engineers as well as marketing and sales personnel. If you are interested in joining Trilicon you should mail your resume to [email protected]--even if we don't have anything available now, we will keep your resume on file and will contact you for follow-up if we have an opening that might be of interest to you in the future.
