Acquiring custom chips usually means dealing with complex negotiations and a large minimum order requirement. wafer.space is a pooled fabrication solution to that. You submit your design through an automated system and, in return, get 1000 identical bare dies or chip-on-board (COB) assemblies (each bonded to a small PCB). The area to design your chip is standard, a slot measuring 3.88 mm × 5.…
