We review recent application specific integrated circuits developed for high energy neutrino, gamma ray and cosmic ray detectors, which share constraints of the same kind. We compare various technical concepts used to fulfil similar requirements. We suggest some ways which could be followed in the near future to answer the needs of next generation experiments.
