From a logic circuit to an integrated circuit
A checked half adder, readable RTL and a design-stage checklist.
Read the guide →Build openly: reproducible designs, review and real hardware
A small reproducible design package and a review with evidence.

No engineering background is needed for the first guide. For the second, know that a bit is 0 or 1 and practise AND, OR, NOT and XOR. Keep your predictions before looking at the answers. The third guide is for learners ready to explain and review a small project.
Open the free logic lab →The lab models small digital circuits. These guides explain the further verification, process data and manufacturing work needed for a real integrated circuit. More semiconductor and quantum lessons are planned.
