Why would you think that?
Well I'll put it this way. I don't think the move from 45nm to 28nm - which has taken eASIC 3 years - comes without a need for new equipment for their inhouse engineers.
If you know any different let me know but it's a bit of a side issue and I think you are just trying to start an argument??
I'd be shocked if they didn't have new equipment since a lot of their computers will be replaced in 3 years, but in terms of requiring specialized new equipment to test 28nm vs 45nm Nextreme devices I would be surprised if they needed much. Software packages will need to be updated and the experience of designing the nextreme platform (as opposed to individual devices) would help with a custom ASIC.
It is all a bit moot though, as it seems pretty unlikely eASIC is involved with the 28nm design.
