Overview
L-Edit Photonics
Design your photonic integrated circuit in a layout centric flow. The designer can implement their design using either a drag and drop or a script-driven methodology. Both of those are in the same full custom IC design layout editor that drives the physical verification and tape-out processes.
KEY FEATURES
Photonic Design
L-Edit Photonics enables the fast creation of a photonic design using a drag and drop methodology in an IC layout editor, without having to write a single line of code. Once the design is completed, a netlist can be extracted for photonic simulation.
Layout Centric Design
- PIC design in a complete IC layout editor,
- Create layout without writing a line of code
- Supports a layout centric design flow where a schematic is not needed
- Schematic flow optional with S-Edit
- A simulation netlist can be created as input into a photonic simulator
Simplifying Photonic Layout
- Simple waveguide creation and editing
- Automated crossing insertion
- Precision snapping to optical pins
- Wave guide to pin checking
Complete PIC Design Flow
- Photonic layout verification with Calibre's equation based design rules
- Photonic simulation is supported though integration with our partners
- Simulation partners are Ansys, Luceda, Optiwave, and VPIphotonic
- Photonic PDKs are available from multiple foundries
- Scriptable with Python
- L-Edit Photonics is available on both Linux® and Windows®
