Description-en: Framework for Verilog RTL synthesis
This is a framework for Verilog RTL synthesis. It currently has extensive
Verilog-2005 support and provides a basic set of synthesis algorithms for
various application domains.
.
Yosys can be adapted to perform any synthesis job by combining the existing
passes (algorithms) using synthesis scripts and adding additional passes as
needed by extending the yosys C++ code base.
