Can you reduce cost and development cycle of your next ASIC?

find asic vendors

Have you ever wondered about the possibility of minimizing risk, design time and production cost simply by working with different IC design or verification companies? Or whether you could make your current ASIC cheaper by changing your FAT (foundry, assembly, test) providers?
 
Actually it’s something you can do right
