Kindly answer in Just 7,8 lines please

AnswerVLSI 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.

Answer:

I thought I already answered this.

Both FPGA and ASIC could be used to design physical-circuit layout, so they are good for speed and power consumption depending on how good your design is.

In the case given, you would use ASIC because the image of the circuit is already given--you only need FPGA when you're trying to design the circuit. Also, you're trying to mass produce the circuit, which FPGA cannot do because FPGA are like the size of an arduino; they're huge. Meanwhile, ASIC are tiny chips and can be created in bulk at a time making it the better choice to use for the given parameters in the question.
