An ASIC stands for Application Specific Integrated Circuit and is often assumed to be exorbitantly expensive to design and manufacture one. The reasons behind such a conjecture is are not entirely unfounded, given the fact that mask-set for the state-of-art semiconductor technology like 5nm costs around $10-15 million! This puts
Read MoreTiming ECOs refer to last mile timing and DRC fixes before you tape-out the ASIC. EDA implementation tools (with help of physical design engineers) do 95-98% of the job when it comes to meeting the timing goals. For the last 1-2% timing violations, however, it is prudent to handle them

Facebook is doing it, Google is doing it, even Amazon and Bosch are doing it. They have started designing ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuit, aka SoCs, ICs, chips). In fact, system companies are becoming the new ASIC designers and manufacturers. If you are a non-silicon company, this paper will help
