A Tiny FABulous FPGA on Tiny Tapeout? It's more likely than you think!

Yesterday the TTIHP26a shuttle (https://app.tinytapeout.com/shuttles/ttihp26a) from #TinyTapeout has closed. In it, hundreds of incredible projects.
You can view the full shuttle and its designs here: https://app.tinytapeout.com/projects/3744

I had the opportunity to submit an FPGA, which I created using my FABulous LibreLane plugin. For this fabric, I developed a "tiny" tile library that better fits the constraints of Tiny Tapeout.

While it is a small FPGA in terms of available resources, it is absolutely massive for a Tiny Tapeout project. It utilizes 8x4 TT tiles to implement an FPGA with 9x5 FABulous tiles. In total, there are 168 LUT4s and FFs available - enough for some simple designs!

@mole99 Still much better than my 8 LUT2 FPGA on the same shuttle 😆 https://github.com/can-lehmann/tt-fpga/blob/main/docs/info.md

@CanLehmann Haha, well this is an unfair comparison given the 1x1 size 😉
Cool design 👏 Now you just need a nextpnr backend!
