Introduction

The IC Knowledge - IC Cost and Price Model is the industry standard for cost and price modeling of low power silicon integrated circuits. For high power silicon integrated circuits, discrete devices and compound semiconductors we recommend our Discrete and Power Products Cost and Price Model. The IC Cost and Price model does not cover 3D NAND and only covers DRAM up to the 2x generation, for 3D NAND or 2y and beyond DRAM we recommend our Strategic Cost and Price Model.

 

The IC Model is very easy to use, the user only has to make eight selections or entry's and there is help for many of them. The model then presents a detailed analysis of cost and pricing and offers over seventy options for customization. Cost includes wafer fabrication, wafer test, packaging and final test.
