MB15G000 Series
s DEVELOPMENT FLOW
Products are developed through the following processes. The illustration below shows the development flow.
(1) Customer Request (Phase 1)
The customer selects an existing macro from the Fujitsu Macro Brochure, for the purpose of producing a system
block in a specific design. If the desired macro does not exist, the customer may request Fujitsu to modify an
existing macro.
(2) Functional Study and Price Approximation (Phase 2)
Based on the customer request, Fujitsu and the customer make an initial study of feasibility. An initial price
estimate is also made.
(3) Development Start (Phase 3)
Based on the results of the primary study, and with the approval of the customer, Fujitsu starts the development
process. Detailed investigation is made including circuit study and simulation of circuit characteristics, a layout
is created, and provisional delivery characteristics (target specifications) are drawn up. The development
schedule, development costs, and price estimate are prepared.
(4) Prototyping and Mass Production
Based on the provisional delivery specifications approved by the customer, the LSI is designed and prototyped.
The standard time for ES prototyping is approximately nine weeks. Fujitsu and the customer jointly evaluate the
ES based on the provisional specifications. If no problems are found, final delivery specifications are approved
and development is completed. The next step, transition to mass production and delivery, requires a standard
interval of approximately three months.
