Presentation
The Evolution of Collaborative Open Source Hardware Development
DescriptionWith the evolution and establishment of open source software, open hardware is aspiring to a similar stature of dependability and reliability in the industry. Over the past years, the chip design industry has witnessed the growth of open source and collaborative efforts across the entire spectrum of hardware development. The community of open hardware comprises several key ingredients necessary to design and build a chip, and those ingredients are served to a chip designer via a design environment.
These include:
-hardware instruction sets such as RISC-V, OpenPower
-Process Design Kits (PDKs) representing the manufacturing ingredients to design a chip
-Electronic Design Automation (EDA) software used for the construction, functional, electrical, and design verification of the design
-Cloud based design enablement platform
-Collaborative design of SoC components using a mix of new and off the shelf open source IP
This session will provide the audience with the latest developments in open source PDKs, EDA, cloud based design environments, and a collaborative chip design project known as Caliptra.
