Porting of Proprietary PDK to Digital Open-Source EDA Tools (Tomasz Hemperek)

Open-source tools for ASIC design are gaining momentum due to their cost-effectiveness, customizability, and reliability. These tools have proven their value through multiple successful designs in recent years. This talk will present our experience in successfully porting a proprietary 110nm Process Design Kit (PDK) to open-source EDA tools such as Yosys and OpenRoad. We will discuss both the successes and challenges encountered during this process, using the prototype Gbit serial data link as a case study.
