From the Publisher:

This book begins with an explanation of the Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC) industry and explores the pros and cons of the ASIC approach to electronic system design. There is an ASIC revolution in the design of electronic products. Many engineers are in need of information about this technology. This book presents information from an experienced design engineer about the entire ASIC design cycle including design methodology, process technology, device package, design tools, ASIC vendors, as well as illustrating common errors in ASIC design.

From the Back Cover:

The strategies in this handbook will tremendously increase the Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC) user's chances of success. Proven procedures help the user achieve a chip working on first pass, at speed, in the system, on time, within budget and without pain. Real-world issues as they relate to ASIC are dealt with from a viewpoint of implementation and project management. The guide will benefit electronics engineering and management personnel employed in aerospace and defense, industrial, telecom, electronic data processing, automotive and consumer electronics industries. � guidelines on select the appropriate ASIC technologies and methodologies. � comes with test program development procedures. � shows the user how to beat the high failure rate in ASIC abd VLSI technology. � techniques to help remove the burden of teh long schedules, high costs, and high risk factor associated with ASIC. John Schroeter has held ASIC engineering, project management and marketing management posts with CADIC, Fairchild Semiconductor and Seattle Silicon.
