Yeah. If they need all those certifications, I’d add another zero to the price. Things are different today. The ISA helps reduce lock-in and a lot of otherwise proprietary costs get amortized across companies and industries. There’s more competition coming up in that market which creates pricing pressure. There’s also just a bigger market in general. Auto companies (and other safety related fields) don’t care about rad certification necessarily, but are willing to buy chips like these for the redundancy features. Going from selling 200k chips over the product lifetime to selling 1M radically reduces per unit cost. In the AI age, iterating every other decade isn’t an option and the only other solution is finding a way to split the costs more.
