Default-Rules Based Clock Tree Synthesis in open-source EDA
For hierarchical designs ~500k instance count, participants are expected to develop code which will build clock tree for a design which has close to ~50k sequential flip-flops using default routing rules
How about pre-route and power-grid generation in opensource EDA?
Hey There – Think about it!! Today’s version of open-source EDA tools, work very well for hierarchical designs sub-25k instance count. For hierarchical designs ~500k […]
Now that’s the beauty of open-source….
Hey There, Our team worked really hard to get Robot + MP3 player using India’s First Indegenious 32-bit RISC-V Microprocessor “Shakti E-Class”…This one is Shakti […]
Think about pre-placed cells and power ring generation in opensource EDA
Hey There – Think about it!! Today’s version of open-source EDA tools, work very well for hierarchical designs sub-25k instance count. For hierarchical designs ~500k […]
Re-define pad placement using open-source EDA
Hey There – Think about it!!! Last week, we shared our idea and vision of “How to define the width and height of core and […]
Let’s re-think open-source EDA – core and die
Hey There – Think about it!!! Today’s version of open-source EDA tools, work very well for hierarchical designs sub-25k instance count. For hierarchical designs ~500k […]
After SHAKTI processor, another master-stroke by Prof. V. Kamakoti
Online university Course name – Foundation of Computer Systems Design
This course is being taught by Prof. V. Kamakoti, who needs no introduction, who lead India’s first RISC-V microprocessor SHAKTI teamand made all of us proud.
‘Made in India’ SHAKTI processor on VSDFLOW – Now that’s exciting
With learning being online, SHAKTI core and ‘vsdflow’ being opensource, this is first-time in the history of VLSI design & EDA (thanks to RISC-V ecosystem and Shakti Team at IITM lead by Prof. Kamakoti), a chip will ever be taped-out using all open source flow, which will cater to almost 80% Indian Semiconductor Market.
Keynote 1(Continued): Inception of Intel 8086
It wasn’t that bigger deal for Intel because they thought, at the time, it will be 250,000 chips will be sold for 5 years, which isn’t that many. But they were wrong. It was a 100Million computers were sold. And suddenly 8086 from being an emergency back-up was an over-night success and had a very bright future, because it was binary compatible of PC software, and so had great opportunity
Isn’t that an inspiring story?
