Signum Systems™ was founded in 1979. From our inception, the company dedicated itself to producing high quality tools for embedded systems development.  Soon, we found ourselves in the mainstream of the embedded emulation market, supplying full-featured in-circuit emulators (ICEs) to the developers of microcontroller-based systems. Our major customers include the hard disk drive makers (Seagate, Maxtor, Ministor, Syquest, Micropolis, Conner, IBM) as well as chip manufacturers (Zilog, Texas Instruments, National Semiconductors, Intel).

Signum's state-of-the-art, easy to use emulators are conceived, developed and manufactured entirely in the U.S.A. by the company's expert engineering and production teams. Signum prides itself on its engineering-driven, rather than market-driven, character.

Signum System manufactures its products with pride, and justifiably so. Not only our customers own superb development tools that are reasonable priced, but they also enjoy technical support that has no match in the industry. Try our products free. Ask for help from us anytime. Buy with confidence.
