This is a page describing a proposed mass-volume SoC. It outlines:
-* the NREs involved (realistically USD $7m, with headroom up to $12m preferred)
+* the Non-Recurring Engineering (NRE) costs involved (realistically USD $7m, with headroom up to $12m preferred)
* proposes a fair market price (around $12-13)
* estimates a manufacturing cost (around $3.50 to $4)
* realistic industry-standard timescales (12-18 months).
* USD 400,000 for engineer to perform layout to GDS-II
* USD 1,000,000 for (LP)DDR3/4 which includes customisation by IP vendor
* USD 250,000 for Libre-licensed DDR firmware (normally closed binary)
-* USD 250,000 for USB3/C
+* USD 250,000 for USB3.1/2/C
* USD 250,000 for HDMI PHY (includes HDCP closed firmware: DVI may be better)
* USD 50,000 for PCIe PHY
* USD 50,000 for RGMII Ethernet PHY
- Standard "Pi / Arduino" SoC-style interfaces including UART, I2C,
SPI, GPIO, PWM, EINT, AC97.
-The "PI / Arduino" style interfaces are provided so as to be pin-comoatibke with the existing "Shield" 3rd party producy markets.
