\chapter*{Abstract}
Most of today's digital design is done in HDL code (mostly Verilog or VHDL) and
with the help of HDL synthesis tools.

In special cases such as synthesis for coarse-grain cell libraries or when
testing new synthesis algorithms it might be necessary to write a custom HDL
synthesis tool or add new features to an existing one. It this cases the
availability of a Free and Open Source (FOSS) synthesis tool that can be used
as basis for custom tools would be helpful.

In the absence of such a tool, the Yosys Open SYnthesis Suite (Yosys) was
developed. This document covers the design and implementation of this tool.
At the moment the main focus of Yosys lies on the high-level aspects of
digital synthesis. The pre-existing FOSS logic-synthesis tool ABC is used
by Yosys to perform advanced gate-level optimizations.

An evaluation of Yosys based on real-world designs is included. It is shown
that Yosys can be used as-is to synthesize such designs. The results produced
by Yosys in this tests where successfully verified using formal verification
and are comparable in quality to the results produced by a commercial
synthesis tool.
