## Integrated IC Design Environment (IIC-OSIC-TOOLS)
2121

22-
In the rapidly evolving field of semiconductor design and fabrication, accessibility and affordability of design tools play a crucial role, particularly in educational and research institutions. The India IC Initiative (IIC) Open-Source IC Tools, also known as IIC-OSIC, are specifically designed to address this need. Initiated as part of a broader push towards developing a self-reliant semiconductor ecosystem in India, the IIC-OSIC suite provides comprehensive, open-source toolsets tailored for both analog and digital integrated circuit (IC) design. There are numerous ways in which you can install the open-source chip design tools for this course.

The simplest, "default" method is to use the pre-packaged Docker container provided by: [IIC-OSIC tools](https://github.com/iic-jku/IIC-OSIC-TOOLS). A research team led by Prof. Harald Pretl from Johannes Kepler University (JKU) developed this Docker container. This is a pre-compiled Docker image which allows to do circuit design on a virtual machine on virtually any type of computing equipment (personal PC, Raspberry Pi, cloud server) on various operating systems (Windows, macOS, Linux). For further information like installed tools, how to setup a VM, etc., please look at [IIC-OSIC-TOOLS GitHub page](https://github.com/iic-jku/IIC-OSIC-TOOLS).

> In this course, we assume that students have a basic knowledge of Linux and how to operate it using the terminal (shell). If you are not yet familiar with Linux (which is basically a must when doing integrated circuit design as many tools are only available on Linux), then please check out a Linux introductory course or tutorial online, there are many resources available.
