FDF Tools and libraries

FWK

A modular, Tcl-based framework designed to automate the creation and build processes for FPGA projects using various EDA tools

Hog (HDL-on-git)

A set of Tcl/Shell scripts plus a robust methodology to manage HDL designs in a git repository.

Open XC7

The open-source toolchain for Xilinx 7-series FPGAs, open-source DDR3 controller and PCIe endpoint are supported.

XiBIF

An open-source Python tool and hardware platform for streamlined FPGA development. Focus on your design, not the tooling.

Conifer

Fast inference of Decision Forests for FPGAs

Cheby

Code (HDL, C, python, doc) generator from a register map description

IPbus

Software and firmware that provide a reliable high-performance control link for particle physics electronics, by implementing a simple A32/D32 control protocol for reading and modifying memory-mapped resources within FPGA-based hardware devices.

RgGen

Code generation tool for control/status registers (CSR)

hwcompiler

HDL – SW co-development automatic code generator for register map

YML2HDL

Enables the description of custom HDL types in simple YAML structures, bridging the HDL library gap in multi-language projects like VHDL, SystemVerilog, HLS.

Spade

A hardware description language with a powerful type system and hardware-specific abstractions.

Veryl

A modern hardware description language as alternative to SystemVerilog.

OSS CAD Suite

Yosys-based tools for synthesis and formal verification of hardware designs

OSVVM

A VHDL verification framework, transaction API, utility library, verification component library, scripting/build API (TCL based), co-simulation (C++ running in hardware simulator), and report generation. Provides similar capabilities to SystemVerilog+UVM – only much easier.

UVVM

A free and Open Source Methodology and Library for making very structured VHDL-based testbenches.

VHDL LS

A VHDL language server

Surfer

A snappy and extensible waveform viewer

Colibri

Open Source VHDL Common Library for DAQ

PoC (Pile of Cores)

Provides implementations for often required hardware functions such as Arithmetic Units, Caches, Clock-Domain-Crossing Circuits, FIFOs, RAM wrappers, and I/O Controllers.

OpenLogic

FPGA Standard Library, vendor Independent, contains things like CDCs, FIFOs, RAMs, standard interfaces like SPI/I2C/AXI, fixed-point math

FloPoCo

FloPoCo is a generator of hardware arithmetic cores
