rush order

**Yes, we offer expedited services** for **urgent projects requiring faster turnaround** — with hot lot fabrication reducing wafer fab time by 30-50% (6-8 weeks vs 10-14 weeks standard for advanced nodes, 4-6 weeks vs 8-12 weeks for mature nodes), fast-track design services adding engineers for parallel execution (20-30% faster completion), expedited packaging and testing with priority scheduling (2-3 weeks vs 4-6 weeks standard), and express shipping for delivery (1-3 days vs 5-10 days standard). Expedited service costs include hot lot premium of 50-100% additional wafer cost ($5K-$17K extra per wafer depending on node), fast-track design premium of 30-50% additional NRE ($50K-$1M extra depending on complexity), expedited packaging/testing premium of 30-50% additional cost ($0.05-$0.25 extra per unit), and express shipping charges ($200-$2,000 depending on weight and destination). Typical expedited timelines include prototyping in 6-8 weeks total (vs 10-12 weeks standard) from tape-out to packaged units, production runs in 6-10 weeks (vs 10-14 weeks standard) from order to delivery, and complete ASIC development in 9-15 months (vs 12-24 months standard) from specification to production. Expedited services are subject to fab capacity availability (limited hot lot slots per month), require advance booking (2-4 weeks notice for hot lots, 1-2 weeks for expedited packaging), have limited slots per month (first-come first-served, typically 5-10 hot lots per month), and may require minimum order quantities (25 wafers minimum for hot lots). Best for time-critical projects including product launch deadlines (must hit market window), competitive response (competitor announced product, need to respond quickly), market window opportunities (seasonal products, trade show demos), emergency replacements (production line down, need parts urgently), and funding milestones (need working silicon for investor demo or funding round).
