Applications Specific Integrated Circuit. A silicon chip customized for a specific application such as video compression.
Abbreviation for pplication- pecific ntegrated ircuit.
Pronounced "ay-sik," ASIC is a chip designed for a particular application rather than an all-purpose microprocessor. ASICs can be built from scratch, but a less strenuous method is to simply connect existing circuits in new ways.
An integrated circuit tailored for a particular piece of electronic equipment. ASIC are intended for sale to a single company and are typically developed to meet that company's design objectives for a specific application. Not to be confused with an application-specific standard processor, which, like an ASIC, is designed for use in a specific piece of equipment but intended for sale to multiple companies.
A circuit designed for a specific application, as opposed to a general purpose circuit, such as a microprocessor.
A leading Supplier of application-specific Integrated Circuits
a chip with application-specific function, designed using predefined elements from a circuit library, assembled, interconnected, and timed by a design system
a custom-designed processor that improves performance over a similar design with standard chips and lowers the cost of developing new systems
a microchip designed for specific applications, as opposed to a general purpose microchip such as a microprocessor
an integrated circuit customized for a particular use, rather than intended for general-purpose use
A chip with custom-built hardware circuits for a particular set of functions. ASICs are commonly used in networking devices to maximize performance and provide integration of multiple functions into a single chip.
A chip that, unlike a normal computer microprocessor, is designed to execute a specialized function or procedure. ASICs may be viewed as chip implementations of programs.
An integrated circuit (silicon chip) that is specially produced for a biometric system to improve performance.
A chip that has been customer designed.
A chip that is custom designed for a specific application rather than a general-purpose chip such as a microprocessor. An ASIC, unlike an FPGA, has fixed functionality and is not reprogrammable.

ASIC chip is a special designed chip for providing unique functions. It can replace general-purpose commercial logic chips and integrate several functions or logic control blocks into one single chip in order to lower manufacture cost and simplifies circuit board design.
pplication pecific ntegrated ircuit. Custom semiconductors designed for very specific functions and are used in electronic products, such as camcorders, automobile air bag systems, and printers.
An ASIC is a circuit designed for a very specific purpose, such as the processors in PDAs or the chips on a motherboard chipset. ASICs contrast with more...
(pronounced a sick) An pplication pecific ntegrated ircuit is a semiconductor chip, which is produced for a specific application for a specific customer. ASICs are designed using a suite of computer aided software programs (CAD). The design is simulated to predict its performance under worst-case production tolerances. These simulations and production testing are used to guarantee performance of the production ASICs. An ASIC may be manufactured in several sub types including FPGA, Gate Arrays, linear (mixed signal) arrays, standard cells, and full custom. They may contain digital only, analog only, or a mixture of digital and analog circuitry.
Application Specific Integrated Circuits are designed to suit a customer's particular requirement, as opposed to DRAMs or microprocessors, which are general-purpose semiconductors.
Application-Specific Integrated Circuit
(AmeriChrome IC) The ASIC is a video processing IC that processes the chroma and luminance during the copy process, ensuring the highest quality copy performance, and as part of a comprehensive solution, helps improve the overall video performance of the Dual-Deck VCR. The A/V Switching IC integrates previously discrete components to create a powerful multi-purpose A/V crosspoint matrix switch, with applications reaching far beyond just the Dual-Deck VCR.
Applications-Specific Integrated Circuit, also called a gate array Asynchronous Logic that is not synchronised by a clock. Asynchronous designs can be faster than synchronous ones, but are more sensitive to parametric changes, and are thus less robust.
