Using customizable MCUs to bridge the gap between dedicated SoC ASSPs, ASICs and FPGAs: Part 1 (Jun. 14, 2007)
Custom ASICs always offer the best performance, power consumption, security and unit cost of any silicon-based solution. Cell-based ASICs provide the best characteristics because the poly and diffusion layers for interconnect, and transistors can be sized to optimize speed, density, and power dissipation according to each particular cell's requirements. |

Nextreme Structured ASICs: An alternative for designing cost-optimized ARM926EJ processor-based embedded systems (Mar. 19, 2007)
Traditional IC design options that embedded system designers have had to choose from include fixed hardware devices such as standalone microprocessors, microcontrollers and ASSPs or configurable hardware devices such as FPGAs and cell-based ASICs. In this paper we present a new design option called Nextreme Structured ASICs which provide embedded system designers with a compelling alternative to custom embedded system design. |
