Koopa

Koopa is an end-to-end open-source chip taped out by external page PULP Platform, on IHP silicon, using The OpenROAD Project, YosysHQ, tools, with financial support support from SwissChips.

Koopa is based on the external page Croc SoC platform. Koopa in IHP 130 features a newly designed QSPI interface & uses a new open source library developed for the VLSI5 course at ETH Zurich, led by Oscar Castaneda and Christoph Studer.
