What are the benefits of using ALD's ASIC design?

With this design approach of using pre-fabricated high complexity analog IC functions, mixed analog/digital ASICs with up to greater than an order of magnitude more complexity and precision, when compared to other development approaches, can be developed and verified. One very significant user benefit is that field testing of the finished system product where the ASIC is being used can be fully tested under actual operating environments before an ASIC is implemented in silicon. This design approach supports VLSI integration of simulation and breadboard validated system contain dozens to hundreds of complex components normally found on a printed circuit board, including many linear functions, such as dual slope integrators and operational amplifiers.

Design macromodel libraries with corresponding symbol libraries are available as an optional design tool in the form of models and subcircuits for SPICE simulators. Very high precision circuit functions or nanopower circuit functions can ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
