5 Easy Steps to Calculate ASIC Unit Cost
July 26, 2012
It happened to all of us. You come to your office one morning and find a note from your operation manager “what will be the ASIC’s unit cost?”
Although an ASIC unit cost has a direct impact on revenues, it is typically only visited twice: before the design starts and when design ends. It’s also interesting to note that ASIC cost tends to escalate during development phase. Which probably means, you need to run your calculations more often.
Here are 5 easy steps for calculating the final ASIC unit cost of your project.
