Understand the world that runs the world.
You use chips every day and were never shown how a single one works — or who makes them, or why countries now fight over them. The Silicon School gives you the map, told like a story, with nothing left as jargon.
The big picture and the real craft — no prerequisites.
Most courses hand you syntax. We hand you the whole field: what a chip is, the people who build one, the factory, the geopolitics, and how to find your place in it.
Built to be understood
Every term from zero, told like a walk with an engineer. Follow it like a podcast, screen in your pocket.
The actual jobs
RTL, verification, DFT, physical design, signoff — who does what, and why it matters to a career.
Hands-on, for free
Advanced tracks use real open-source silicon tools, so you can practice without a single paid license.
Courses
Start with the map. Deeper, hands-on tracks are on the way.
