| # Libresilicon StdCellLib LS130 - SKY130 Test-wafer |
| |
| This project is a test-wafer which puts various LS130 cells into the user-area of a Caravel harness for taping the LS130 cells out on the Skywater 130nm process. |
| |
| The LS130 cells are generated with the https://github.com/thesourcerer8/StdCellLib flow (which uses Librecell's lclayout and lctime), using the Tech.SKY130 configuration. |
| |
| The build report can be seen here: https://pdk.libresilicon.com/dist/StdCellLib_20201106_SKY130/Catalog/ |
| The cells were copied into this repository to avoid additional dependencies: https://github.com/thesourcerer8/caravel_stdcelllib_stdcells/tree/release/cells |
| |
| A generator was developed to generate a Verilog file for all the cells that places each cell once and connects it to the IOs of the harness: |
| https://github.com/thesourcerer8/caravel_stdcelllib_stdcells_project/blob/release/scripts/generator.pl The script needs to be run from the Catalog directory of your StdCellLib. The output is then used as https://github.com/thesourcerer8/caravel-stdcelllib-stdcells/blob/release/verilog/rtl/user_proj_example.v |
| |
| In the end I adapted https://github.com/thesourcerer8/caravel_stdcelllib_stdcells_project/blob/release/openlane/user_proj_example/config.tcl to use the cells as blackbox cells. |
| |
