[SCM] Advanced.ASIC.Chip.Synthesis DL : 0: The semiconductor industry has a proven track record of quickly reducing reference to IC design scale to the ridiculously irrelevant. We, as a group, quickly saturated our terminology to refer to levels of integration as we applied the term "Large Scale Integration" (LSI) in the mid 80 s to chips containing more than 1,000 transistors and moved to the more progressive "Very Large Scale" (VLSI) as we passed into the 10,000 to 100,000 transistor territory only a year or two later. A few more attempts at renaming our design output with terms such as ULSI (Ultra-Large Scale Integration) were fortunately left in the annals of history as the more insightful realized that the consequences of Moore s Law would quickly require us to move beyond the confines of the English language to create appropriate superlatives.
