ASIC
An application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) is an integrated circuit composed of electrical components, such as transistors, capacitors, and resistors, fabricated on a wafer com-posed of silicon or other semicon-ductor material that is customized for a particular use. ASIC customized for a particular use, rather than intended for general-purpose use. For example, a chip designed to run in a digital voice recorder or a high-efficiency bitcoin miner is an ASIC. Application-specific standard products (ASSPs) are intermediate between ASICs and industry standard integrated circuits like the 7400 series or the 4000 series.…
