My wafer.space FABulous FPGA is alive! 👏
This chip was part of wafer.space Run 1 (https://github.com/wafer-space/ws-run1), which taped out at the end of last year.
The video below shows the FPGA starting up and pulsing the two onboard RGB LEDs.

Hackaday Europe in Lecco, Italy was a blast!
My first ever Hackaday event, and probably not my last 😉
I met lots of people, both old friends and new, as well as some I already knew online but hadn't met in real life yet.

About
Hi! I'm Leo, an open-source silicon advocate. This means that I'd like to advance chip design using open-source EDA tools and open-source PDKs. I am one of the maintainers of LibreLane and I regularly contribute to the three open-source PDKs (sky130, gf180mcu and ihp-sg13).
So how did I get there? Well, I wanted to understand computers at the deepest level, and transistors are pretty much the bottom of it all as far as I'm concerned :)
