Status of CEP migration #14

Closed arlted closed 2 years ago

arlted commented 2 years ago

Hi, I read a comment in another thread that a more up-to-date CEP will be migrating to UCB'sChip Yard. Is there a time frame when the migration could happen? I am interested in using the most-up-to-date CEP design and silumation environment for a project that involves ASIC.

Thanks, Ted

As noted in #13, I expected it to be in ~1 month. We are in the process of standing up an FPGA version of the Chipyard-CEP, which is essential to the open source release.

Thank you. Will the Chipyard-CEP have an ASIC version too?

Regards, Ted

Ted,

I think you'll need to clarify your question. In the case of the FPGA target, we'll be releasing a build on the Arty A7-100T, with a goal of releasing a more capable version on the VCU118 in the future.

On the ASIC front, any libraries/IP need to be licensed... as was the case with our recent tapeout. We have a long-term goal of releasing a licensed unencumbered ASIC version, but that is a while out.

Sorry, my question was not clear. I meant to ask about the "licensed unencumbered ASIC version" and you have answered it.

Thank you.
