the genesis "specific" ym* cores look a lot more "authored"; commit history shows more activity around those files too
but thats just a guess... something that can generate verilog from chip images would be pretty cool...
- junon 3y agoThere are assistant tools for reversing die shots, by the way. Semi-automatic, not sure if we've gotten to the point of fully automatic yet.
- rbanffy 3y agoI can’t wait to see AI applied to reverse engineering of decapped chips. Do we have tools for exposing specific layers instead of 2D images? It would, perhaps, be interesting to go with diagonal slices as we grind the chip and, aided by exaggerated vertical features, capture the full depth on a single pass.
