Exploring the intricate process and timeline of developing the maiden version of an ASIC, from initial architecture planning to testing stages, emphasizing the critical role of verification and the lengthy duration, sometimes spanning up to two years in advanced technologies. Insightful discussion on potential fixes post first tape out for optimization.
In this week’s episode, Anna chats with Omer Shlomovits and Yuval Domb from Ingonyama. They go back to the start of the project, exploring Ingonyama’s initial vision for what ZK Hardware could be, how the field has evolved and how they are accelerating ZK Hardware today. The group discuss hardware product cycles, the hardware and algorithmic components, how a ZK ASIC is developed, they review some of the latest research from Ingonyama and more.
