ABSTRACT:
A type of electronic circuit, called an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), is used to customize the functions in a semiconductor chip as defined by a user. ASIC includes a microprocessor, functional inputs and outputs, connection circuits, electronic gates, inhibition gates and links to perform "application specific" operations. The user chooses the functions and the arrangement of the various connection circuits from a menu of predetermined functions. Once the ASIC has been defined by the user, it is ready for manufacturing.
