Product Description

The 0.18um CX5000 is an ASIC that utilizes the combination of an advanced metal programmable gate array and optimized EDA system to implement high performance ASIC designs while reducing application tooling costs and design turnaround time. ASIC designers using the CX5000 are able to meet or exceed their design schedules and budgets without compromising technical objectives.
