KASIRGA-KIZIL

Tool

KASIRGA-KIZIL is a digital processor design project that won first place in the Teknofest 2023 Chip Design Competition's Digital Processor category. The project implements the KIZIL İşlemci (KIZIL Processor), a pipelined RISC-style core written in Verilog, benchmarked against CoreMark, and physically implemented using the OpenLane flow with the open_pdks Sky130 PDK.
