What is the development time from specification to ASIC prototypes?
ASIC design, including production silicon for cost reduction programs or miniaturization are available in 12-22 weeks. Analog ASIC prototypes can be completed in as little as 8 weeks depending on the chip design and complexity. ASICs for new product development, where the performance and specification of the ASIC is subject to modifications, takes between 26 and 32 weeks. The actual schedule will depend on the design changes and number of prototype cycles the customer requests.
