Abstract :
A system that provides quick turnaround for ASIC feasibility evaluation and tradeoff for design, test, and manufacturability is described. During proposal or design phase, users can estimate ASIC size and performance for both new designs and technology migration, as the design architecture, system budget, user careabouts, ASIC technology, packaging, and other alternatives are selected
