Long awaited journey, finally begins

Open-source Analog blocks have been a real concern for open-source world, and we badly needed a strategy to built it from scratch. Here's a list of open-source analog IP's built using open-source tools using open-source pdk's (osu180nm) by students from Indian universities in 8 weeks.

It takes years to build silicon proven analog IP's and this journey is a start to a long road which will end up building 52 analog/digital IP's for educational purposes.

Here we present 5 basic analog IP's/power analysis tools:

1) General purpose Bandgap by Ankur Sah, Sheryl Serrao

2) 10-bit potentiometric DAC by Avinash Bellana, Jayasri Veeravilli, Neelam Buddhiram Chaurasiya

3) Analog 4:1/2:1 muxes by Prithivi Raj K

4) Bi-directional buffer with non-inverting CMOS input and gated PU/PD by Nalla Gowthami, Tanvi Arora

5) Basic 6T SRAM cell which is soon to be used to build 32kB memory using openRAM compiler by Anusha

6) Power analysis tool by Vahini and Charu Gupta

Let's take a moment to congratulate them on below Linkedin link for their spectacular efforts on building them. A lot more work needs to be done. Test it out and give feedback for improvements
