Instructions to build

Fetch all the projects

./configure.py --update-projects

Configure Caravel

./configure.py --update-caravel

Build the GDS

make user_project_wrapper

Simulation

There is a testbench that you can use to check the scan chain and controller is working. The default of 498 projects takes a very long time to simulate, so I advise overriding the configuration first:

# rebuild config with only 20 projects
./configure.py --update-caravel --limit 20

Then run the test:

cd verilog/dv/scan_controller
# you will also need to set your PDK_ROOT environment variable
make test_scan_controller

You should get a VCD dump with a reset applied to input 1 for 2 clocks, and then 10 clocks applied to input 0.

You can set the design that is active by changing the test_scan_controller.py file, update the assignment to active_select.

Dev notes

  • PDN hang issues https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/OpenLane/issues/1173
  • Also discovered PDN hangs if extra lefs/defs are not deduplicated
  • with PDN set so dense, tapeout job fails with density checks
  • with unused PDN straps turned off, precheck fails
  • copied the erased version (just power rings) and deleted the first digital power rings, copy pasted that over final gds
  • precheck fails with missing power ports
  • manually added missing power ports to gl verilog of user_project_wrapper
  • precheck passes. Will try tapeout job
  • tapeout job failed with DRC, was because outer power ring was too thin. I think due to configuration rather than being cutoff for precheck
  • updated missing_power_rings with correct rings and repeated, this time tapeout passes
  • Tim suggests doing this as a module/cell to make it easier to reproduce
  • Maximo suggests editing pdn_cfg.tcl and using the -nets option with add_pdn_stripe to force only 1st voltage domain
  • This worked, see the new openlane/user_project_wrapper/pdn_cfg.tcl config
