An FPGA is a type of PLD that allows designers to purchase an IC and program its connections to implement a desired functionality, providing benefits of low NRE costs and almost instant IC availability but with drawbacks of being bigger, more expensive, power hungry, and slower than an ASIC.

Device) All layers already exist Designers can purchase an IC Connections on the IC are either created or destroyed to implement desired functionality Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) very popular Benefits Low NRE costs, almost instant IC availability Drawbacks Bigger, expensive (perhaps $30 per unit), power hungry, slower
