What is Tiny Tapeout?

Tiny Tapeout is an educational project that aims to make it easier and cheaper than ever to get your digital and analog designs manufactured on a real chip.

To learn more and get started, visit https://tinytapeout.com.

Set up your VHDL project

1. Add your VHDL files to the src folder.
2. Edit the info.yaml and update information about your project, paying special attention to the source_files and top_module properties. If you are upgrading an existing Tiny Tapeout project, check out our online info.yaml migration tool.
3. Edit docs/info.md and add a description of your project.
4. Adapt the testbench to your design. See test/README.md for more information.

The GitHub action will automatically build the ASIC files using OpenLane.
