ASIC design job vs FPGA design job

[supersonic_528]

Hi folks,

I am an ASIC design engineer with over 6 years experience. My experience in ASIC design spans across microarchitecture, RTL coding, synthesis, timing closure and verification. Is it advisable for me if I change to a FPGA design job? I mean, what are the pros and cons? I do not have much experience in FPGA other than school projects. How much learning is involved? Will it be difficult to switch back to ASIC design position in the future if I move to a FPGA job? Do FPGA design involve less work and stress than ASIC? Please provide your opinion, experience or any other comment.

Thanks!

why you want to change to FPGA design? You have more than 6 years working experience in ASIC design, you should be in this field for more contribution!
