[IEEE SSCS] “PICO” Open-Source Chipathon

IEEE SSCS “PICO” Open-Source Chipathon
Automating Analog Layout
– Sign-Up Deadline: May 10, 2024 –

The IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society is pleased to announce its fourth open-source integrated circuit (IC) design contest under the umbrella of its PICO Program (Platform for IC Design Outreach). While this contest is open to anyone (no restrictions), we encourage the participation of pre-college students, undergraduates, and geographical regions that are underrepresented within the IC design community. 


The goal of this year’s event is to advance the automatic generation and open sharing of analog circuit layout cells to increase our community’s design productivity and to catch up with other fields where sharing and automation is a key enabler of progress (e.g., in machine learning).

Contest Outline

  1. Interested individuals sign up using this form by May 10, 2024.
  2. Phase 1 (~June): Through a series of weekly meet-ups and training sessions, the participants learn to create basic one- or two-transistor layout generators using Python and open-source CMOS PDKs. Using Jupyter Notebooks hosted on Google Colab allows anyone with an internet connection to participate - no downloads or installations required! Relevant circuit examples can be found in [1], [2]. We will leverage code modules available with the OpenFASoC [3] environment.
  3. Phase 2 (~July): Interested participants define larger layout building blocks that they wish to automate (examples: comparator, bandgap, phase interpolator, OTA). Teaming among participants is encouraged to maximize collaboration and learning).
  4. Phase 3 (~August-September): Participants implement their generators and submit sample layouts and test structures for potential tape-out to an open-source MPW (tentatively SKY130).
  5. Phase 4 (~October-November): A jury evaluates the created generators/layouts and selects the test structures that will be taped out. The teams work together to assemble a shared database with all the designs and to complete the tapeout. Ideally, this phase will involve automated verification through CACE [4] or a similar tool.
  6. Phase 5 (TBD): The designs will be tested using lab measurements by a subset of participants and SSCS volunteers with access to lab facilities. Some of the test setups may be available for remote characterization. The obtained measurement data will be added to the repositories containing the layout generators.

[webinar] IEEE SCV-EDS: Investigating quantum speed limits with superconducting qubits

The Electron Devices Society Santa Clara Valley/San Francisco joint Chapter is hosting Prof. Meenakshi Singh. The title of the lecture is ‘Investigating quantum speed limits with superconducting qubits’

When: Friday, Oct. 20, 2023 – 9am to 10am (PDT)
Where: This is an online event and attendees can participate via Zoom.

Registration or Send an email to hiuyung.wong at ieee.org to get the zoom link indicating if you are IEEE member, IEEE EDS member, IEEE Student member

Abstract: The speed at which quantum entanglement between qubits with short range interactions can be generated is limited by the Lieb-Robinson bound. Introducing longer range interactions relaxes this bound and entanglement can be generated at a faster rate. The speed limit for this has been analytically found only for a two-qubit system under the assumption of negligible single qubit gate time. We seek to demonstrate this speed limit experimentally using two superconducting transmon qubits. Moreover, we aim to measure the increase in this speed limit induced by introducing additional qubits (coupled with the first two). Since the speed up grows with additional entangled qubits, it is expected to increase as the system size increases. This has important implications for large-scale quantum computing.

Speaker Bio: Dr. Singh is an experimental physicist with research focused on quantum thermal effects and quantum computing. She graduated from the Indian Institute of Technology with an M. S. in Physics in 2006 and received a Ph. D. in Physics from the Pennsylvania State University in 2012. Her Ph. D. thesis was focused on quantum transport in nanowires. She went on to work at Sandia National Laboratories on Quantum Computing as a post-doctoral scholar. She is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Physics at the Colorado School of Mines. At Mines, her research projects include measurements of spin-orbit coupling in novel materials and thermal effects in superconducting hybrids. She recently received the NSF CAREER award to pursue research in phonon interactions with spin qubits in silicon quantum dots.

Date of current version: 24 January 2022

Last summer 2021, the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society (SSCS) launched its first open source chip design contest under the umbrella of its Platform for Integrated Circuit Design Outreach program (PICO). Beginning with 61 submissions, a volunteer jury selected 18 teams from nine countries to embark on a journey toward tapeout. Anyone interested in supporting future activities is encouraged to sign up at the Society’s volunteer web portal. Stay tuned for the 2022 edition of the SSCS PICO contest!
