This is the layout of our latest open source chip - Tiny Tapeout 9!
By reducing cost and using open source tools, we've massively increased semiconductor accessibility.

- Exciting to be working with IHP's open source PDK! @waferffo
- A 555 submitted to #TinyTapeout 06 ! Super cool to see more analog projects coming in. github.com/vincentfusco/t…
- #TinyTapeout 5 chips just received from @efabless ! We've already tested the chip and confirmed our test designs work. Next step is PCBA and then order fulfillment!
- “My 1st #ASIC. A real bucket list experience” @jangray’s silicon-verified "S4GA" custom #FPGA inspires: Tiny space, lots going on! 1 of 161 on-chip #TinyTapeout designs. Wow, Jan! github.com/grayresearch/t… Make a TinyTapeout.com chip #openASICs #VLSI #sky130 #opensource
- We did it! We sold out a shuttle! Thanks to everyone who submitted a design to #TinyTapeout 6! And if you missed it, TT07 will open for submissions on Monday.
- #TinyTapeout 6 stats! 9 meters of wire and 267000 standard cells across all projects The highest utilisation of all designs was 93% The biggest project a NIST random number generator test with 19265 cells Picture shows logic cell usage, analog designs appear mostly empty.
- You can't deny we have superior packaging!I always loved packing up ASIC care packages for the people on my course who taped out. It's a rare event now, because we do it all through @TinyTapeout - but thanks to a recent delivery from @efabless I have some nice bits to send out to @L0u1s73doux and @bit0fun !
- 19 days left for Tiny Tapeout 7! If you submit a design, you'll also receive this amazing ADC!Check out this cool 12 bit SAR ADC by Ricardo Nunes submitted to #TinyTapeout 7! Explore it yourself: balestrini.com.ar/tmp/asic/tt_gd… Project link: app.tinytapeout.com/projects/689
00:00 - Huge news! Analog infrastructure on TT06 is working! Here's @matthewvenn 's first mixed signal design generating a sawtooth! tinytapeout.com/runs/tt06/tt_u… Very good news for everyone who put analog on TT06, 7 and 8.
- We just launched our demoscene competition! Instead of using an existing computer, you create your own hardware!
- Last 10 hours for #TinyTapeout 6 and we have already broken our previous records! Thanks to @efabless for making this possible!
- Our next open source ASIC shuttle closes in 13 days! Thanks to support from @efabless you can create a custom digital or analog ASIC and get it manufactured for just a few hundred bucks! Welcome to the open source semiconductor revolution! tinytapeout.com
