Chipyard is a framework and generator for constructing custom RISC‑V SoC hardware. Built at UC Berkeley, it leverages Chisel/FIRRTL to generate full-stack systems—from CPU cores to peripherals—and includes simulators, FPGA deployment tools, and integration with Rocket Chip and other RISC‑V ecosystems.

...The compiler lowers DSLX into a rich intermediate representation, applies aggressive optimization and scheduling passes, and can either JIT the design for software simulation or emit Verilog for FPGA/ASIC flows. A key idea is “software-style” iteration: fast, deterministic simulation via the JIT encourages test-driven development and property checking before committing to RTL. XLS also provides tooling for pipelining, state insertion, and formal equivalence checks between different stages, giving developers confidence as designs evolve. ...

ALCHA aims to reduce FPGA project develop time by means of automation and abstraction, but without loosing the low-level control that HDLs, such as Verilog, provides. It will support an object oriented programming model, abstract data and signal types, and compile-time scripting.

Rocket Chip is a parameterized RISC-V SoC generator written in Chisel that produces synthesizable RTL for a wide range of cores and configurations. At its heart is the Rocket core, a simple, in-order, five-stage RISC-V implementation, but the generator composes much more: coherent caches, MMUs, interrupt controllers, and buses via the TileLink interconnect. A diplomacy framework (LazyModules) lets designers wire components with negotiated parameters, enabling reuse and rapid exploration of...

...In addition to a strong core, WFCPK will also include modules emulating various processors (e.g., the MOS 6502 and the Zilog Z80) as well as the Video-Audio Interface (a custom VGA-compatible display and audio controller). The VAI is designed to fit within an FPGA to be integrated into real designs. This library is licensed under the GPLv3 but also includes the classpath exception so that proprietary software can be linked against it required.

...We have created an eclipse plugin version of the tool as well as a standalone command-line based version. Both function identically and output a netlist that can be imported into a pcb layout tool. VHDL revolutionized how FPGA designs and digital logic circuits have been designed and captured and overcame many of the difficulties associated with the use of schematic editing tools. We believe the use of an HDL is also the way of the future when it comes to PCB design. The PHDL compiler automatically supports the output of PADS and Eagle netlists, and through extending a simple java class, users can generate a netlist in practically any format required by their choice of a layout tool.

Writing Testbenches for FPGA/ASIC design is always a very fastidious and boring task. This project helps any FPGA/ASIC designer by providing a full RTL test environment with C support.
