I am Mohamed "Donn" Gaber, a graduate student at the American University in Cairo's Open Hardware Lab. I am currently also a part-time CAD Tool Engineering Contractor with Silimate, Inc.
Previously, I maintained OpenLane and OpenLane 2 at Efabless Corporation, which I am currently working on forking over to the FOSSi Foundation.
I studied Computer Engineering at the American University in Cairo.
- OpenLane - The premier
open-source RTL-to-GDSII flow by Efabless Corporation, used for countless
designs on the Google OpenMPW and Efabless chipIgnite shuttles, based on
Yosys, OpenROAD, Magic, KLayout and other tools.
- And its rewrite, OpenLane 2.0.
- Fault - Somehow the only open-source design-for-test solution, including ATPG, Scan Chain Stitching, and TAP insertion and verification.
These get patches in my dwindling spare time and are pretty inactive, but I'm still mostly proud of them.
- Nudelta, a reverse-engineered open-source alternative to the console for NuPhy keyboards
- Oak, a browser-based assembler/simulator generator
- Phi, a more focused take on Verilog that started as my undergrad thesis project
