Manufacturing custom chips has become easier and cheaper during recent years. wafer.space is not the only one doing so.
They use a 180nm, which is meh. But still, it’s an advancement towards making this accessible to everyone. Maybe in the coming years, we could see people easily doing so at home.
Also now, IMO, importance of open source hardware design has increased. 20 years ago, it wouldn’t mean much if a CPU is open source or not. You could not produce a chip. And a discrete one is useless. Now it’s different.

This is cool but not Linux related really. It’s a mixed signal process which is nice. If it’s 180nm digital you could probably use an fpga instead.
Yes these multi project wafers have been around forever including in more advanced processes.
Ah of course not Linux related. I don’t know what I thought when cross posting it…
Do you have an alternative community suggestion on programming.dev?
