Your question:

FPGAs and ASICs can contain an almost unlimited number of logic gates, and because they are packed into chips, are easy to add to a motherboard, and a good compliment to the CPU for a given electronic design. Both FPGAs and ASICs cost about the same? True False

FPGA vs. ASIC Cost Comparison Answer and Explanation

Unit Costs:

ASICs: Once the initial NRE costs are covered, the per-unit production cost of ASICs is generally lower than FPGAs, especially for high-volume production. This is because ASICs are optimized for specific tasks, leading to smaller size and lower power consumption.

NRE Cost High Low

Unit Cost (Low Volume) High High
