NRE & MOQ

Filed under: unEarthly tERms — cafm @ 3:45 pm March 13, 2007

NRE - Non Recurring Cost In the electronics industry (or any industry for that matter), is the one time cost involved in developing a product. for example NRE’s are obviously higher for ASIC’s than FPGA’s. 

MOQ - Minimum Order Quantity The minimum quantity of a product that must be sold so that the project breaks even. When NRE is high MOQ also becomes high.
