Apicula GW5A 60k & 138k

Open source toolchain for Gowin FPGAs

Apicula is developing an open source toolchain for Gowin FPGAs. Open source tools avoid vendor lock-in and provide unique capabilities, but to avoid vendor lock-in you actually need to support multiple vendors. Apicula offers that, being the second most mature toolchain after Lattice thanks to previous grants. This grant furthers our support for their GW5A line of FPGAs, their most complex product line yet by a large margin.
