Can You Save 15% of you ASIC Package Cost Today? Hint: Wirebonds
August 1, 2012
In today’s competitive semiconductor space everybody is eager to reduce their ASIC production cost. Some say that dramatic redesign changes would lead to significant reduction in chip cost, for instance – using a more advanced silicon technology node to shrink the die size. But this is really a big and painful step.
In this post I will describe a very simple method which will enable you to cut 5% to 15% of your assembly cost.
