So they aren't "burned into silicon" then? The article mentions FPGAs and ASICs but it's a bit vague. I would be surprised if ASICs actually made sense here.
- fecal_henge 7mo agoThey make sense when you consider that 'on detector' electronics has all sorts of constraints that FPGAs cant compete on: Power, Density, Radiation hardness, Material budget.
