6 years ago, I wrote an in-depth blog post about the design principles of the Vexriscv. It’s unlike any other CPU I’ve seen.

Do you still use spinal? Have there been other advances in HDL that you've seen over the last 6 years?

Yes, I still use it for all my hobby projects but I don't use any of the advanced techniques that are used in the Vexriscv. My Scale knowledge is way too limited for that. I use SpinalHDL as a more efficient way to write pure RTL.

This was a really interesting read, thanks.
