oritemis.frc Posted July 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 Thank you guys for all the info! About the programing language, for the best possible performance should we use native language or C/C++? Thank you again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamster Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 That is like designing a rally car and asking if for best perfomance you should use racing slicks.... Let your engineers use whichever tool works for them - but it won't be C++! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezsmith41 Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 You would be looking at £100,000 plus for an asic plus 6 months work, which is why people prototype asics using fpgas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezsmith41 Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 The economies of scale don't kick in until you are using a few thousand devices a month and your design is fully fixed, there are some FPGA families which are designed to have a slightly easier path to full asic implementation.

jezsmith41 Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 The other thing to consider is that if your design is subject to change then an FPGA is far easier to deal with than respinning an asic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
