Open Logic is a VHDL-2008 standard library for FPGA projects, providing reusable, vendor- and tool-independent hardware components under a permissive license. It aims to be the equivalent of stdlib for HDL development and can also be instantiated from SystemVerilog.

Use cases

• reuse common FPGA components across vendor tools
• build VHDL projects with a standard library of building blocks
• use VHDL components from SystemVerilog designs
• develop FPGA firmware for commercial projects with a permissive license
• avoid rewriting common HDL utilities for each project

When to choose

• you develop FPGA designs in VHDL-2008 and want reusable, tool-independent components
• you need a permissively licensed HDL library usable in commercial projects
• you want cross-language usage from SystemVerilog

When to avoid

• your project targets Verilog-only toolchains without VHDL support
• you need components not covered by the library's entity list
• you require an officially standardized library
