This distribution contains sources for building out the SkyWater SKY130 130nm process. Sources for the foundry process data must be obtained separately. Read the README file in subdirectory sky130/ for instructions on obtaining and building the SkyWater sky130A PDK.

Open_PDKs is open-source software distributed under the Apache-2.0 license. See file LICENSE for the complete license text.
Instructions:
git clone https://github.com/RTimothyEdwards/open_pdks.git cd open_pdks ./configure [options] make [sudo] make install
where the configure [options] are specific to each foundry PDK supported by open_pdks and can be queried using
./configure --help
At a minimum you will want to pass a configure option to declare the location of the PDK vendor source distribution (which can be obtained separately),
./configure --enable-[PDK_name]-pdk=[path]
The open_pdks version of the PDK can be built locally within open_pdks without the need to declare an install target or run “make install”. However, it is recommended to declare a target location and install there, using
./configure --enable-[PDK_name]-pdk=[path] --with-[PDK_name]-local-path=[path]
followed by “make” and “make install”.
Also see the website at http://opencircuitdesign.com/open_pdks/. The “Install” page has full instructions for configuring and installing open_pdks.
