Select the shuttle you want to target for your project. Each shuttle has its own project submission deadline and schedule for delivering parts. Each shuttle provides different packaging and part counts.

Create a project for the shuttle as a placeholder and pay a $200 deposit to reserve your space.

Start by cloning the example project from our Github repo here. Follow the documentation to replace the example with your digital design. Implement your design using the open-source design flow included with the project.

You can also clone one of the projects for a library of open-source community designs.

Or use commercial design tools to implement your design and integrate it with the reference chip.

Update your project on the Efabless platform. Submit a precheck job for your project to make sure it meets all the criteria for final assembly and fabrication.

With a successful precheck, now submit a final 'tapeout' job to build the final chip layout for your project. Mark your project as complete and you are ready to go.

After fabrication, we will package dies for your project and assemble some of your parts on evaluation boards for testing. We ship both packaged parts and boards to you.

If you need bare dies, contact us to see what might be possible.

Once you have your parts and boards, clone our open-source repo to get diagnostics and tools for programming the flash as well as firmware and software test frameworks to jumpstart testing your project and developing firmware.
