Started late 2011 and still experimental, Migen (Milkymist generator) is a Python-based tool that aims at automating further the VLSI design process.
+Migen (Milkymist generator) is a Python-based tool that aims at automating further the VLSI design process.
Despite being faster than schematics entry, hardware design with Verilog and VHDL remains tedious and inefficient for several reasons. The event-driven model introduces issues and manual coding that are unnecessary for synchronous circuits, which represent the lion's share of today's logic designs. Counter-intuitive arithmetic rules result in steeper learning curves and provide a fertile ground for subtle bugs in designs. Finally, support for procedural generation of logic (metaprogramming) through "generate" statements is very limited and restricts the ways code can be made generic, reused and organized.

The Mixxeo will support mixing from two DVI or HDMI sources up to 720p60, with crossfade, fade to black and potentially other effects with a latency of less than two frames.
