FPGA-to-ASIC integration provides flexibility in auto MCUs

What is MCU?
A MicroController Unit, also refered to as µC or simply microcontroller, is a single chip that contains a processor, RAM, ROM, clock and I/O control unit.

What is an ASIC?
An application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) is an IC that is customised for a specific application (end product or a closely related family of end products), such as a chip which is designed to run a cellular handset.

What is FPGA?
Short for Field-Programmable Gate Array, a type of logic chip that can be programmed. An FPGA is similar to a PLD, but whereas PLDs are generally limited to hundreds of gates, FPGAs support thousands of gates. They are especially popular for prototyping integrated circuit designs. Once the design is set, hardwired chips are produced for faster performance.
