Combinational Circuit Using Verilog and OpenLane

The circuit supports two ALU operations:

  • NOR
  • SHR (Shift Right)

The project demonstrates the complete digital-design workflow, starting from RTL-level Verilog implementation and functional verification to logic synthesis and physical-design processing using an open-source ASIC design flow.

The design was synthesized using OpenLane, targeting the SkyWater SKY130 technology node, providing hands-on experience with the basic stages involved in converting a Verilog hardware description into an ASIC-oriented implementation.

Key features:

  • 5-bit input word size
  • Verilog-based combinational circuit design
  • NOR operation
  • Shift-right (SHR) operation
  • RTL-level hardware description
  • Logic synthesis
  • SkyWater 130 nm PDK
  • OpenLane ASIC design toolchain
