SI-SPACE PRESENTS

ChipShop

A Cloud based GUI for Accelerating SoC Deisgn.

Our Features

Web based SoC Configuration

System-on-Chip (SoC) Configuration is done on the basis of Chipyard Cake Pattern. Users can add, remove, and edit cake layers (configs) to create a customised SoC.

FPGA Mapping and Bitstream Generation

ChipShop also offers Bitstream Generation of the generated SoC , along with mapping its I/Os onto FPGA components.

Real-time Collaboration and Version Control

ChipShop also offers the feature of Real Time Collaboration and Version Control for each of the SoC Projects users create.

Blackbox (IP) Integration

Users can also attach their own Custom IPs with the System on Chip as an Memory Mapped Input Output (MMIO).

Problem Statement.

  • Designing a System-on-Chip (SoC) is out of reach due to the high level of technical expertise required.
  • It stifles innovation and advancement in the industry.
  • Need for a user-friendly approach to SoC design.
  • To make the design process easier and more efficient.
  • In addition, it should democratise access to SoC design by making it broadly available to individuals without deep technical knowledge.
  • This issue is already resolved by Chipyard, however using it and creating customised SoCs with it takes more technical know-how, making it only useful for a some specified users.

Solution in form of ChipShop.

  • ChipShop is a web-based GUI built on top of Chipyard.
  • It enables users to configure and accelerate the SoC generation.
  • Easy-to-use interface for Chipyard configuration.
  • Streamlines the SoC design process and makes it accessible to a broader range of users.
  • Addition of new IPs and automatic blackbox generation and integration for user-provided RTLs.
  • Well-suited for large teams working on complex designs.

STATISTICS

ChipShop currently supports

200

Configuration Classes (Cake Layers)

All the Config classes inclusive in Rocket-Chip, Berkeley Out-of-Order Machine (BOOM), and Chipyard.

6000

Combinations of SoCs

Users can create numerous SoCs by combining the different configuration classes.

chiV: CHISEL Interfacing for Verilog Ips

In addition to the Blackbox Integration feature, we have created a utility software for Interfacing of Verilog IPs into CHISEL HDL.
