i think the google shuttle thing and tinytapeout are only for digital chips, not even analog

i was thinking of directly measuring rc fall times for the keyboard multiplexer rather than running free oscillators

relaxation oscillators will give you a lot of harmonics, might be good or bad

Above is a seminar on analog layout designed to target Tiny Tapeout that went over Magic (by Jonathan Edwards) and Klayout (Thomas Perry). Sky130 and tinytapeout can do analog, but most of the tools and the examples are digital based.

oh fantastic, do you mean subtext jonathan edwards? i had no idea he was doing hardware

i thought the google shuttle program connected your design to the outside world through some kind of digital bullshit

Lol, I messed that up, Timothy Edwards is the creator of Magic. Not sure where I got Jonathan, Ousterhout? I am aware of subtext, would be good for our LLM future.

With Tiny Tapeout the levels of inception increase, we must go deeper and you get 8 bits in and 8 out and the designs are daisy chained. Purely for experimentation. 1000 logic cells or whatever else you can fit in the space.
