Design of a semi-custom integrated circuit for the SLAC SLC timing control system
Abstract
A semicustom (gate array) integrated circuit has been designed for use in the SLAC linear collider timing and control system. The design process and SLAC's experiences during the phases of the design cycle are described. Issues concerning the partitioning of the design into semicustom and standard components are discussed. Functional descriptions of the semicustom integrated circuit and the timing module in which it is used are given.
