At the moment there are two issues with assignment of names in pysim: 1. Names are not deduplicated. It is possible (and frequent) for names to be included twice in VCD output. 2. Names are different compared to what is emitted in RTLIL, Verilog, or CXXRTL output. This commit fixes issue (1), and issue (2) will be fixed by the new IR. |

Amaranth HDL (previously nMigen)
The Amaranth project provides an open-source toolchain for developing hardware based on synchronous digital logic using the Python programming language, as well as evaluation board definitions, a System on Chip toolkit, and more. It aims to be easy to learn and use, reduce or eliminate common coding mistakes, and simplify the design of complex hardware with reusable components.
The Amaranth toolchain consists of the Amaranth hardware definition language, the standard library, the simulator, and the build system, covering all steps of a typical FPGA development workflow. At the same time, it does not restrict the designer’s choice of tools: existing industry-standard (System)Verilog or VHDL code can be integrated into an Amaranth-based design flow, or, conversely, Amaranth code can be integrated into an existing Verilog-based design flow.
The development of Amaranth has been supported by LambdaConcept, ChipEleven, and Chipflow.
Introduction
See the Introduction section of the documentation.
Installation
See the Installation section of the documentation.
Supported devices
Amaranth can be used to target any FPGA or ASIC process that accepts behavioral Verilog-2001 as input. It also offers extended support for many FPGA families, providing toolchain integration, abstractions for device-specific primitives, and more. Specifically:
- Lattice iCE40 (toolchains: Yosys+nextpnr, LSE-iCECube2, Synplify-iCECube2);
- Lattice MachXO2 (toolchains: Diamond);
- Lattice MachXO3L (toolchains: Diamond);
- Lattice ECP5 (toolchains: Yosys+nextpnr, Diamond);
- Xilinx Spartan 3A (toolchains: ISE);
- Xilinx Spartan 6 (toolchains: ISE);
- Xilinx 7-series (toolchains: Vivado);
- Xilinx UltraScale (toolchains: Vivado);
- Intel (toolchains: Quartus);
- Quicklogic EOS S3 (toolchains: Yosys+VPR).
FOSS toolchains are listed in bold.
