Its main purpose is to increase reuse of IP (Intellectual Property) cores and be an aid for creating, building and simulating SoC solutions.

FuseSoC works on Linux, Windows, and macOS. It is written in Python and can be installed like any other Python package through "pip". Please refer to the full list of system requirements and installation instructions in the Installation section in the User Guide.

To check if FuseSoC is working, and to get an initial feeling for how FuseSoC works, you can try to simulate a simple hardware design from our core libray.

If you have any of the supported simulators installed, you can try to run a simulation on one of the cores as well. For example, fusesoc run --target=sim i2c will run a regression test on the core i2c with Icarus Verilog. If you want to try another simulator instead, add e.g. --tool=modelsim or --tool=xcelium between run and i2c.

Did it work? Great! FuseSoC can be used to create FPGA images, perform linting, manage your IP libraries or do formal verification as well. Check out the online documentation documentation to learn more about creating your own core files and using existing ones. If it didn't work, please get in touch (see below).
