A method of determining the most cost effective manner in which to provide a given number of memory or logic gates for a particular application. The method takes into consideration both the cost per memory bit of fabricating memory cells on a semiconductor chip as a function of the number of memory cells on the chip (i.e, the chip size), and the costs of assembling multiple memory chips into a larger memory device using different assembly and packaging configurations. By considering the fabrication and packaging costs together, the most economically efficient combination of memory chip size and packaging method to produce a desired memory capacity can be determined.
