Chip Express customizes and packages single die prototypes in one day using a patented process in which no masks are required. Volume production is based on the same chip layout using standard CMOS process. The Raptorex CX4000 family will be available in production quantities in the second quarter of 2000. The mid-point family member has 384 kbits of embedded SRAM and 500,000 equivalent ASIC logic gates. Popular packaging options will be available including Plastic Quad Flat Packages and both standard and fine pitch Ball Grid Arrays.
Military packaging is also available.
The Easyflash-68HC11 development environment accelerates system development by allowing designers to quickly prototype and debug complete embedded systems designs, including the MCU code, the PSD's external logic and memory, external peripherals, memory mapping, and ISP capabilities. The only other way to prototype 68HC11 designs with external peripherals is to build a printed circuit board. The expansion slots allow the addition of additional prototype boards. Any of the 10 available flash PSD8XXF derivatives can be plugged into the daughter board socket to exactly represent the configuration of the design. A second, optional daughter board is available that supports Waferscale's PSD3XX and PSD211R devices.
