:Abstract:
|
|
Most of today's digital design is done in HDL code (mostly Verilog or
|
|
VHDL) and with the help of HDL synthesis tools.
|
|
|
|
In special cases such as synthesis for coarse-grain cell libraries or
|
|
when testing new synthesis algorithms it might be necessary to write a
|
|
custom HDL synthesis tool or add new features to an existing one. In
|
|
these cases the availability of a Free and Open Source (FOSS) synthesis
|
|
tool that can be used as basis for custom tools would be helpful.
|
|
|
|
In the absence of such a tool, the Yosys Open SYnthesis Suite (Yosys)
|
|
was developed. This document covers the design and implementation of
|
|
this tool. At the moment the main focus of Yosys lies on the high-level
|
|
aspects of digital synthesis. The pre-existing FOSS logic-synthesis tool
|
|
ABC is used by Yosys to perform advanced gate-level optimizations.
|
|
|
|
An evaluation of Yosys based on real-world designs is included. It is
|
|
shown that Yosys can be used as-is to synthesize such designs. The
|
|
results produced by Yosys in this tests where successfully verified
|
|
using formal verification and are comparable in quality to the results
|
|
produced by a commercial synthesis tool.
