Reverse engineering is a technique aimed at understanding the structure of a semiconductor device and its functions. In case of an ASIC or a custom IC, that means extracting information about the location of all the transistors and interconnections. In order to succeed, a general knowledge of IC and VLSI design is required.

All the layers formed during chip fabrication are removed one-by-one in reverse order and photographed to determine the internal structure of the chip. In the end, by processing all the acquired information, a standard netlist file can be created and used to simulate the device. This is a tedious and time-consuming process, but there are some companies, for example Chipworks [110], which do such work as a standard service.
