KEY FEATURES

Photonic Design

Create your PIC design with significant productivity improvement using either a schematic driven or layout first design methodology both using automated waveguide routing.

Layout Only Design

  • Create a PIC design in an IC layout editor
  • Using drag and drop or a script driven methodology
  • Use foundry supplied components, user developed or some combination
  • A simulation netlist can be created as input to our photonic simulation partners
