Digital Design with Micro Electronics and Very Large-Scale Integration were essential in advancement of computer systems using semiconductors. Why?

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?

Does electromigration have adverse effects on conductive metals (with reasonable girth) other than thin-film metals, semiconductors or integrated circuit chips?

How to replace the off chip components with on chip components, and how to replace the use of inductor?

Clock skew in VLSI design refers to the variation in arrival times of clock signals at different parts of a chip. This can lead to timing issues and affect overall circuit performance. Understanding its impact and employing effective mitigation strategies is crucial for robust VLSI designs.

Last year I studied a course on Computer Systems Architecture/Organization. During a lecture, I learned about data hazards and one of the common solutions to them: Reordering the instructions. Modern processors solve this using OOE, but since this is integrated into the processor, it increases chip size, power consumption, and thermal efficiency. So I thought "What if we had an AI-driven processor which does that for the CPU?"

Does anyone know if this has already been successfully researched or implemented? I would greatly appreciate any insightful comments.

MOVs failure mode is short circuit. Is this the case with SOVs also?
