A curated, categorized list of open source hardware tools, EDA software, PDKs, reusable circuit designs, and educational resources. It serves as an index linking to source repositories for silicon design, FPGA development, and verification workflows.

Use cases

  • find open source EDA tools for chip design
  • discover open source FPGA toolchains
  • locate open PDKs like sky130 or gf180 for tapeouts
  • find RISC-V SoC design frameworks
  • learn hardware design with open source resources
  • find HDL simulators and verification tools
  • explore open source CPU and accelerator designs

When to choose

  • starting an open source silicon or FPGA project and needing tooling
  • comparing EDA tools, simulators, or PDKs
  • building a curriculum or learning path for hardware design
  • looking for reusable open hardware designs and generators

When to avoid

  • you need a working tool rather than a directory of links
  • you need proprietary commercial EDA tool recommendations
  • you need detailed tutorials rather than one-line project descriptions
