OpenROAD and key directions for the open-source EDA community

Professor Andrew Kahng shares his vision about OpenROAD and key directions for the open-source EDA community, at OSDA-2023, the 3rd Workshop on Open-Source Design Automation in Antwerp. How will we move ahead faster together? : Raising bars, breaking down barriers, building infrastructure and better proxies.

The OpenROAD 7nm Design Contest Results are announced!

The OpenROAD 7nm Design contest broke many barriers– engaging a diverse global community to participate, learn and compete to solve challenging design problems using popular RISC-V base cores and an advanced technology node using asap7. Participants had the opportunity to learn IC design skills and apply the OpenROAD native flow -OpenROAD-flow-scripts through custom training videos […]
