3. Pre-Defined Tools#
The following are examples of pre-built tool drivers that come with SiliconCompiler which you can use for your own builds.
See the pre-built targets for examples on how these are used in conjunction with pdks, flows and libraries.
3.1. bambu#
The primary objective of the PandA project is to develop a usable framework that will enable the research of new ideas in the HW-SW Co-Design field.
The PandA framework includes methodologies supporting the research on high-level synthesis of hardware accelerators, on parallelism extraction for embedded systems, on hardware/software partitioning and mapping, on metrics for performance estimation of embedded software applications and on dynamic reconfigurable devices.

3.19. slang#
slang is a software library that provides various components for lexing, parsing, type checking, and elaborating SystemVerilog code. It comes with an executable tool that can compile and lint any SystemVerilog project, but it is also intended to be usable as a front end for synthesis tools, simulators, linters, code editors, and refactoring tools.

sv2v converts SystemVerilog (IEEE 1800-2017) to Verilog (IEEE 1364-2005), with an emphasis on supporting synthesizable language constructs. The primary goal of this project is to create a completely free and open-source tool for converting SystemVerilog to Verilog. While methods for performing this conversion already exist, they generally either rely on commercial tools, or are limited in scope.

Verilator is a free and open-source software tool which converts Verilog (a hardware description language) to a cycle-accurate behavioral model in C++ or SystemC.
All Verilator tasks may consume input either from a single pickled Verilog file
(inputs/<design>.v) generated by a preceding task, or if that file does not
exist, through the following keypaths:
For all tasks, this driver runs Verilator using the -sv switch to enable
parsing a subset of SystemVerilog features.

3.24. vpr#
VPR (Versatile Place and Route) is an open source CAD tool designed for the exploration of new FPGA architectures and CAD algorithms, at the packing, placement and routing phases of the CAD flow. VPR takes, as input, a description of an FPGA architecture along with a technology-mapped user circuit. It then performs packing, placement, and routing to map the circuit onto the FPGA. The output of VPR includes the FPGA configuration needed to implement the circuit and statistics about the final mapped design (eg. critical path delay, area, etc).

3.27. yosys#
Yosys is a framework for RTL synthesis that takes synthesizable Verilog-2005 design and converts it to BLIF, EDIF, BTOR, SMT, Verilog netlist etc. The tool supports logical synthesis and tech mapping to ASIC standard cell libraries, FPGA architectures. In addition it has built in formal methods for property and equivalence checking.
