You cannot afford to redesign a similar ASIC, yet you would like to avoid redesigning the complete system(s) that were using it. Another case is wanting to include the functions performed by an obsolete ASIC into a new design. _A possible solution to this kind of problems is to use what you can recover from the original ASIC specification and design an FPGA based on this. \n\n At ALSE, we\u2019ve performed this kind of job quite a few (\u2026)\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/blockquote\u003E\n"}
