> Am I reading that correctly? For $50 you get ~1,000 transistors worth of die space, and it comes in a package?
That's correct, although it's $100: $50 for the space on the group-run chip and $50 for the physical stuff: the chip and the dev kit.
> Are there any other limitations?
Yes. Although, fewer and fewer with each next iteration.
> Full-custom analog design if you wanted?
For analog design, you would need to deal with https://efabless.com/ https://efabless.com/ directly, pay $10k and get 100 QFN chips back with your design some time later.
TinyTapeout is digital-only, for now.
- marktangotango 3y agoWhat kind of transistor count can one get with efabless? Ie novice way of asking how complex of a design can be implemented?
- krasin 3y agoefabless gives 10 mm^2 of project space and the 130nm process node allows for 170kgates to 210kgates per mm^2. That translates to 1.7M-2.1M gates per chip.
