Miraxia Edge Technology Corporation (Headquarters: Nagaokakyo City, Kyoto Prefecture; President and CEO: Shogo Nakazawa) will begin offering the 'Requirements Definition & Software Implementation' service on September 28, 2026, as part of its 'MCU EOL Solution' that supports migration development due to semiconductor supply concerns and microcontroller end-of-life (EOL). This service provides end-to-end support from requirements definition to software implementation.

This service targets MCU EOL responses that tend to be delayed due to insufficient organization of existing product specifications or software assets, or a shortage of development personnel. It provides consistent support from requirements definition to software implementation. Depending on conditions such as the scope and status of existing assets, it can be completed in as little as one month.

While requirements definition to software implementation typically takes about five months, Miraxia can deliver it in as little as one month.

Background

Approximately 20 years after the restructuring of microcontroller manufacturers that began around 2000, MCU EOLs have been increasing in recent years. MCU EOL responses often arise suddenly in regular on-site operations, and delays in initial response can affect subsequent development plans and overall product design.

Meanwhile, the number of MCU engineers is declining, making MCU EOL a management issue for equipment manufacturers related to the continuation of product production and maintenance. Through its existing 'MCU EOL Requirements Definition Service,' Miraxia has encountered the following challenges:

- Inability to secure development personnel despite the occurrence of EOL - Considering outsourcing but forced to handle in-house due to difficulty in organizing requirements - Inability to start migration projects due to insufficient source code or specifications for existing products - Inability to secure personnel to handle software development after requirements definition

To address these challenges, Miraxia combines its development skills with proprietary AI to offer a new service that provides end-to-end support from requirements definition to software implementation. This contributes to early initiation of MCU EOL responses and reduction of the burden on development sites.

*Prices are excluding tax. They vary depending on source code volume, target MCU, scope of analysis/design/implementation, etc. *The minimum one-month response depends on conditions such as scope, availability of existing source code/specifications, difficulty of analysis and implementation, and time required for confirmation/review.

Features

1. End-to-end support from requirements definition to software implementation in as little as one month In addition to requirements definition, we provide consistent support for software design, implementation, and unit testing. Based on EOL deadlines and production plans, we can respond in as little as one month depending on conditions such as scope and status of existing assets.

2. Utilization of proprietary AI and Miraxia's expertise specialized in MCU EOL response By leveraging Miraxia's proprietary AI and knowledge related to MCU EOL response, we stabilize output quality.

3. Flexible use according to customer development processes We can also support software implementation for customers already using the 'Requirements Definition' service. Additionally, depending on the customer's development process, it is possible to use only the 'Requirements Definition' service.

Target Customers

- Manufacturers of industrial equipment, measuring instruments, home appliances, medical devices, etc. - Companies that own products using MCUs subject to EOL - Companies with a shortage of embedded software personnel - Companies whose existing product specifications or software assets are not organized - Companies facing tight development resources due to overlapping EOL responses and new development

Value and Effects

- Accelerate initial response to EOL and prevent delays in responding to component production termination and procurement risks - Allow in-house engineers to focus on new development or critical issues - Organize specifications of existing products that have become black boxes - Reduce coordination burdens that tend to occur with division of labor through end-to-end support from requirements definition to implementation

Track Record

The 'MCU EOL Requirements Definition' service has a track record with the following MCU manufacturers and families:

- Renesas Electronics: M740, M16C/60, 78K0, V850, SH-2, SH-2A, SH-4, H8/500, H8/300H, H8SX, RX600 series, etc. - Texas Instruments: TMS320 DSP family - NXP Semiconductors: MCF521 series (V2 ColdFire core)

Target products include industrial equipment, housing equipment, FA equipment, office equipment, medical equipment, agricultural machinery/construction machinery, power electronics-related equipment, etc.

About Miraxia Edge Technology Corporation

Miraxia Edge Technology Corporation was founded in 1997 as 'Matsushita System Techno Co., Ltd.' to handle semiconductor design and development for Panasonic products. The knowledge accumulated through software development conducted in parallel with semiconductor hardware development has been systematized as 'Device System Integration (DSI)' skills. Currently, the company develops contract-based embedded software/system development business, mainly in the automotive and industrial equipment fields. In 2020, it became part of the Winbond Group, a Taiwanese semiconductor manufacturer, and changed to its current name. With the goal of 'realizing a world where anyone can do embedded development,' the company contributes to improving productivity and quality at embedded development sites.
