They have a strange business model. Their chips are massive. So they necessarily only sell them to large customers. Also because of the way they’re built (entire wafer is a single chip) no two chips will be the same. Normally imperfections in the manufacturing result in some parts of the wafer being rejected and other binned as fast or slow chips. If you use the whole wafer you get what you get. So it’s necessarily a strange platform to work with - every device is slightly different.
