Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) are custom-designed integrated circuits tailored to meet the needs of specific applications. They represent the cutting-edge applications of semiconductor technology. Optimized for particular tasks, ASICs can offer higher performance, lower power consumption, and cost-effectiveness while reducing the overall complexity of systems. This specialized nature makes ASICs crucial in critical areas such as high-performance computing, mobile communications, digital media, automotive electronics, and medical devices. ASICs are an indispensable part of modern electronic systems. They drive technological progress and greatly enrich and facilitate people's daily lives.
This Special Issue aims to collect original research articles on Progress in Application-Specific Integrated Circuit Design. The topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Frontiers of Process Technology;
- Expansion into Application Fields;
- Design Methods and Tools;
- System Integration technology;
- New Materials and Devices;
- ASIC Design for Emerging Technologies;
- Sensor and Actuator Interfaces;
- Reliability and Fault Tolerance;
- Sustainability and Green ASICs;
- Market Analysis, Future Outlook and Challenges.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Electronics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
