Abstract

OpenIC is a software focused on VLSI digital design backend, targeting user experiences. We are building GUI interfaces and scripting interfaces for users (including students & researchers) to get full experience of open source EDA. We want to make it easy to use, easy to learn, and easy to integrate. We are also building a netlist/layout viewer for our application based on Rust.

Software

OpenIC is currently under active development. Open Source will come after initial build and tests. Hope soon!

TODO Roadmap

1. A scripting system for the overall design flow.

2. A procedure-based GUI interface, including build-in terminals.

3. A basic netlist/layout viewer for GUI program.

Idea

We benefit a lot from the open source community and we are eager to be part of it and push it further.
