Panamax FPGA - An Open Source FPGA on SKY130 (Leo Moser) @FOSSiFoundation

Uploaded September 2025 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

A FABulous FPGA utilizing the Panamax padframe designed using open source EDA tools and the open source sky130 PDK.

Panamax FPGA features 64 I/Os, 1280 LCs (LUT4+FF), 8 MAC (8-bit * 8-bit + 20-bit), 16 register files (1w2r, 32x4) and 8 BRAM (dual-ported 1r1rw, 256x32). In addition, the FPGA fabric integrates some analog IP: 2 x 12-bit split-CDAC SAR ADC and 2 x 8-bit R-DAC.

Panamax FPGA was submitted for tapeout in May 2025.
