yup, structured asic is also like that
it's the mask tat really kills
offwork so soon? damn, any vacancies at ur place?

erm, still ok
cafeteria's food is ok, just repetitive

nah, not layout design
but we have to know a bit
my company dun like to produce so many masks
they prefer to produce mature masks(that will be after so many revisions in the foundry )
and also ur company have their own fabs so it's easier to control

clock networking
damn headache for the past few days

haha, we're using networks similar to FPGA

lmao, i'm not headache doing the muxes and networks
but more into the proper definitions of it (some ppl just won't want to change their damn flow )

ah, to a certain extend, there are some similarity
but if use FPGA's network to replace the current one, it'll be damn mind boggling to shrink the die size(FPGA have too much redundancy)

for the moment, yes

well, maybe u can start off with DSP architecture and slowly branch towards graphics engine
i'm sure fishchicken has lotsa articles on it

lol, i guess it depends wat u wanna focus it on
some ppl when doing DSP, they use it as an intended signal processing(filters)
but some ppl are only interested in it's mathematical prowess
how to develop the a DSP that uses the multiplier methods that have a balance between intended workload(bit size) and speed
i have one person at my company that is all crazy about multipliers
as long as it can improve speed, he'll be very interested on how to implement into our hardware

6800 emulator? u mean like a 6800 compiler?
which model u want? 6800HC11 or?

same architecture concept but different derivatives
last time i used this program to check my codings b4 executing on the actual board
