|
| | SPECIAL SESSION: How Do You Design a 10M Gate ASIC?
|

|
| | ASIC design has always been challenging but an increasing number of design groups are unsuccessful at designs in excess of 4M logic gates. A leading industry analyst states that first-silicon success is only a tenth as likely at 10M gates as at lower complexity levels. Some designers have even claimed that design above the 4M logic gate complexity is simply impossible with the current generation of design tools. Nevertheless, a number of designers are successfully approaching the 10M gate complexity level. How are they doing it? In this session designers from three segments of the integrated-circuit design industry will describe key aspects of their design methodology that enable them to achieve silicon success on high complexity designs.
