Chipyard is a framework and generator for constructing custom RISC‑V SoC hardware. Built at UC Berkeley, it leverages Chisel/FIRRTL to generate full-stack systems—from CPU cores to peripherals—and includes simulators, FPGA deployment tools, and integration with Rocket Chip and other RISC‑V ecosystems.

Rocket Chip is a parameterized RISC-V SoC generator written in Chisel that produces synthesizable RTL for a wide range of cores and configurations. At its heart is the Rocket core, a simple, in-order, five-stage RISC-V implementation, but the generator composes much more: coherent caches, MMUs, interrupt controllers, and buses via the TileLink interconnect. A diplomacy framework (LazyModules) lets designers wire components with negotiated parameters, enabling reuse and rapid exploration of different cache sizes, port counts, and memory hierarchies. ...
