ASIC Design For Signal Processing
ASIC is an acronym for Application Specific Integrated Circuit. It refers to the technology that many chip designers, including Lucent, use for the physical creation of their chips. This project focuses heavily on the creation of such a design, which will be incorporated as part of one of Bell Lab's future research chips.

ASICs - the Website
Outdated but useful book and personal page on ASICs. ASICs... the website is a project in computer-assisted education for integrated-circuit design. ASICs... the website grew from a book: Application-Specific Integrated Circuits or ASICs... the book. ASICs... the website now spans several thousand web pages and occupies several gigabytes of disk space. ASICs... the websiteis large enough that you will probably need a copy of ASICs......

Jeff's ASIC Tools Page
This page contains a number of tools I have written which are useful for ASIC design. They are written in perl, or ANSI C, and all have the GNU GPL license. I hope you find them as useful as I do. All I ask is that you drop me a note if you find them helpful. Verilog tools.

World of ASIC (Personal Page)
There just isn't a great source of detailed VLSI/DIGITAL information out there. If I actually keep this up, this should be it. However, unless people take an active interest and submit some ideas, tutorials, examples, may be some cores etc., it may die very soon.

Application-specific integrated circuit @ Wikipedia
An application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) is an integrated circuit (IC) customised for a particular use, rather than intended for general-purpose use. For example, a chip designed solely to run a cell phone is an ASIC. In contrast, the 7400 series and 4000 series integrated circuits are logic building blocks that can be wired together to perform many different applications. Intermediate between ASICs and standard products are...

FPGA's vs. ASIC's - What are the Trade Off's (Registration Required)
Designs that were done in ASICs in the past are done by FPGAs today, faster and for less cost. Complex FPGA design is driving new design approaches. ASIC designs are specialized, offer power and flexibility, and accommodate large designs where FPGA falls short. With so much at stake, where should your company's focus lie? Or is it more of a middle area - a place where structured ASIC can fill the gap?
