The 2023 Free Silicon Conference (FSiC)

will take place in Paris (Sorbonne)

on July 10-12, 2023 (Monday to Wednesday)

This event will build on top of the past FSiC2019 and FSiC2022 editions. The conference will connect experts and enthusiasts who want to build a complete Free and Open Source CAD ecosystem for designing analog and digital integrated circuits. The conference will cover the full spectrum of the design process, from system architecture, to layout and verification. After the daily talks, the discussion will continue until late in an informal and relaxed atmosphere.

Participation to the conference is free of charge, but the attendance must be reserved per email at fsic2023 'at' f-si.org. Details will be announced on this page and over the mastodon channel. The slides and the video recordings of the talks will be published on our website.
