Competition between FPGA and ASIC in semiconductor design is becoming increasingly fierce

FPGA and ASIC are the main camps in current semiconductor design. FPGA was developed first and is still the mainstream application. FPGA is a field programmable gate array with the characteristics of flexibility and reprogrammability, suitable for rapid prototyping and customized solutions. ASIC is a customized integrated circuit for specific applications with the advantages of high performance and low power consumption, suitable for mass production and high-end applications. The competition between the two in the field of semiconductor design is becoming increasingly fierce, driving the development and innovation of semiconductor technology.
