This work proposes a novel platform for bringing a project from the concept to the tapeout stage in a short amount of time. An open-source and extendable RISC-V architecture is exploited to build a small area footprint core. This leads the research platform to be flexible in terms of design integration, while also allowing fast design cycles of research chips.
