Title :
Re-engineering ASIC design with LPGAs
Author_Institution :
Chip Express Corp., Haifa, Israel
Abstract :
The availability of Laser Programmable Gate-Arrays (LPGAs) of over 100k gates which can be economically produced within a few hours simplifies considerably the design cycle and shortens the time-to-market of systems incorporating gate arrays. The technological background and architecture of LPGAs, and the methodology of transfer from design to volume production are described
