Impact of custom interconnect masks on cost and performance of structured ASICs
As process technology scales, the design effort and Non-Recurring Engineering (NRE) costs associated with the development of Integrated Circuits (ICs) is becoming extremely high. One of the main reasons is the high cost of preparing and processing IC fabrication masks. The design effort and cost can...
