Is it possible to Design and Fabricate an IC Chip at Home ?....

Hello masters,

Is it possible to Design and fabricate IC Chip at home using some sort of photo etching or some thing...may be it will not be perfect ie let it consume more power,too big in size and etc.But logically it should work.

I think it must work with keil stuff.

    It merely depends on how much money you are willing to spend. If that is not an issue, you can turn your home into a fab, complete with clean room and everything.

    But then again, why spend upwards of seven figures to make an IC that's worth a few cents ? Especially when there's cheaper approaches, like using FPGAs.

    I think it must work with keil stuff.

    Keil does not sell any tools that are used during IC hardware development.
