I am Mohamed "Donn" Gaber, a graduate student affiliated with the American University in Cairo's Open Hardware Lab. I am currently also a part-time CAD Tool Engineering Contractor with Silimate, Inc and a member of the FOSSi Foundation.
I am the primary maintainer of LibreLane, which is the successor to the OpenLane 2 project I started and maintained at Efabless Corporation.
I studied Computer Engineering at the American University in Cairo.
- LibreLane — Infrastructure for high-quality, modular and repeatable ASIC flows, that implements a flow that is backwards-compatible with OpenLane. Started at Efabless as OpenLane 2.0.
- 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.
- 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 the NuPhy Air75 and Halo75 v1 keyboards
- Oak — A browser-based assembler/simulator for MIPS and RISC-V
- Phi — A more focused take on Verilog that was my undergrad thesis project/parser learning playground
