VLSI is the process of creating an integrated circuit (IC) by combing thousands of transistors into a single chip. There are two
kinds of widely used IC technologies. One is FPGA and other is ASIC. Budget, power consumption, and speed are the common parameters considered for the selection of these technologies. Suppose, a medium volume production of an image transformation circuit is required. As a Circuit Design team lead, which one of the two IC technologies you will select considering the above given parameters for the design of production of required transformation circuit? Support your answer with valid reasons in either case.
Undoubtedly, it is the ASIC and not FPGA. The field programmable Gate Array is meant for general purposes, and ASIC is meant for Specific purposes. And here the application-specific condition holds. We need it for medium production of an image transformation, and this is like Bitcoin which is application-specific. And thus, the correct type of IC which we need in this case is the FPGA, And hence, FPGA is the correct option here.
You are allowed to take out the old ram to replaice it, so replaice it with 2 new 4 GB of ram you dont need to unless the laptop has already 4 GB of ram the type of ram you will use is DDR3 most newer pc's have DDR4 since laptopes are smaller you would need older ram
