Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a scenario where the NRE cost for developing an SPP is projected to be $600,000. If the expected production volume is 100,000 units, what would be the NRE cost per unit? Discuss the implications if production is only 10,000 units.

💡 Hint: Think about how volume affects cost per unit.

Challenge 2 Hard

Assess the relationship between verification complexity and project timelines in hardware design. What could be the cascading effects of insufficient verification?

💡 Hint: Consider the importance of early bug detection.
