FPGA to ASIC migrate - Jerzy Gbur - 2006-02-22 13:46:00

Hi
I'm looking for possibilities for migrating project/design from 
FPGA(XC2V3000) to any asic.
What companies, have you ever had experience in this field?

Kind regards.
Jerzy Gbur

Jerzy,

Have you considered the immediate cost savings and no risk that you 
would gain with EasyPath?

You may want to look at Atmel's offering at:

They do turnkey conversions from most FPGA or CPLD designs.

Thank you, Austin and Gabor. Easy path looks very interesting for my 
use, but I've nowhere found information about power consumption of this 
solutions. It is very important this dice to be less hungry for power, 
then equivalent FPGA.

Kind regards

EasyPath does not affect the power, because you're actually getting
the same FPGA you started with.  Cost savings come from reduced
test requirements (i.e. the part is only guaranteed to work with your
design, not all possible designs).
