| **Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) ** is basically an integrated circuit that is designed specifically for an individual purpose or [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:a:application|application]]. Strictly speaking, this also implies that an ASIC is built for one and only one customer. The opposite of an ASIC is a standard product or general-purposed IC, such as a logic gate or a general-purposed [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:m:microcontroller|microcontroller]] chip, both of which can be used across a large range of electronic applications. ASICs are usually classified into one of three categories; full custom, semi-custom, and structured | **Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) ** is basically an integrated circuit that is designed specifically for an individual purpose or [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:a:application|application]].
