FPGAs are the backbone of high-performance systems — enabling massive throughput, low latency, energy efficiency, and reliable operation in demanding environments. But in practice, FPGA development often slows down where it matters most: integration.
Working with components from multiple vendors, limited access to source code, and fragmented toolchains leads to unnecessary complexity, slow debugging, and weeks lost in workarounds.
We remove these barriers. By combining open, reproducible toolchains with deep design expertise, we enable:
full visibility into your systems
more effective simulation and verification
seamless collaboration across teams
faster and more predictable development cycles
Whether you are building advanced FPGA-based systems or teaching the next generation of chip designers, our approach gives you control over your design — not the other way around.
TL;DR: Open-source EDA is turning chip design from a closed, vendor-controlled field into an accessible, global, and high-performance ecosystem. Engineers and students can now build real systems with more control, flexibility, and often better efficiency—but the tooling is still complex and fragmented, creating a need for structured, reliable environments.
"I'm glad that my thesis required me to implement novel ideas in a hardware software co-design format where I was forced to learn cool toolchains both in hardware and software; and implement them on FPGAs and in simulations.
...
I am excited to release my code open-source. I'd like to thank the opensource community especially, without them I wouldn't have been able to experiment with ideas that defied the norm/tradition, I'll give proper acknowledgments to the open-source code repositories and people in my git repo, so that others can be directed to those amazing open-source repos."
