The Libre-SOC Project

Explore a comprehensive talk from the EuroPython 2021 conference about the Libre-SOC Project, which aims to develop an open-source, user-programmable System-on-a-Chip for smartphones, netbooks, tablets, and Chromebooks. Discover how Python plays a crucial role in various aspects of the project, including hardware description language (HDL) development, IEEE754 FP hardware library creation, OpenPOWER ISA simulation, unit testing, VLSI ASIC layout, hardware co-simulation, and JTAG remote system implementation. Learn about the project's commitment to transparency, avoiding spying backdoors and restrictive DRM. Gain insights into the strategic use of Python-based tools and libraries throughout the development process, from nmigen for hardware design to FlexLib for standard cell library creation. Understand the project's significance in promoting open-source hardware and software integration, and how it leverages Python's versatility to tackle complex engineering challenges in chip design and development.
