Reverse engineering an ASIC — Per aspera ad astra
- 1What is GDS?2Recovering the circuit3Inferring the circuit Kjartan van Driel & Leander Post Per aspera ad astra Jane Street recently released a puzzle where the goal is to reverse engineer an ASIC chip, figure out what it does, and submit a solution.

- Along the way, it dawned on me that the road to the solution could be illustrated in particularly pretty terms, so here is my attempt at that.
