Two weeks until tapeout

Chronicles of a bad idea. Or how I designed a systolic array with in-silicon debug infrastructure from scratch in under two weeks, and taped it out on Global Foundry 180 nm though a Tiny Tapeout experimental shuttle.

Tales on the wire
Playing with #GFMPW0 chips that I received from #Efabless with my test designs produced in #GF180 techprocess and fully paid by G ;)
And those chips are having decent RISC-V core inside :)

Today I am taping out another 5 chips, which takes me up to my 18th ASIC design!

2 chips are tests for the new #GF180 PDK.

Then #TinyTapeout 1 & 2, and a Zero to ASIC course submission. Between them they contain over 300 designs from hundreds of people around the world!
