Description

Copperhead is a collaborative open-source AI platform aimed at aiding hardware teams in the design, validation, and production of circuit boards. By simply detailing a modification or submitting a product brief, users can prompt the agent to make precise edits to actual KiCad files, revise any related documentation, and perform KiCad's built-in checks until all pass successfully. The comprehensive workflow encompasses various stages, including specification, architecture, component selection, schematic design, layout, output generation, firmware creation, and development strategy, ensuring that each phase produces a tangible artifact on disk before progressing. Validation gates check for budget adherence, logical subsystem analysis, datasheet-supported component numbers, ERC-compliant schematics, DRC-compliant layouts, generated Gerber files, firmware source code, and comprehensive bring-up plans. Additionally, Copperhead is equipped to handle modifications for existing boards: users can direct it to a KiCad repository, start the project, and request specific changes. The edits made are targeted adjustments to KiCad source files, ensuring that changes are minimal and easily reviewable while leaving other sections intact. This approach allows for a streamlined revision process that minimizes disruption to the overall project.

Description

Create your photonic integrated circuit within a layout-focused workflow that allows designers to utilize either a drag-and-drop interface or a script-based approach. Both methods are facilitated by a comprehensive custom IC design layout editor, which also manages the physical verification and tape-out stages. L-Edit Photonics allows for rapid photonic design creation through its intuitive drag-and-drop functionality, eliminating the need for coding. Upon finalizing the design, a netlist can be generated to support photonic simulations. The PIC design is entirely integrated within an IC layout editor, enabling users to develop layouts without writing any code, thus supporting a layout-centric approach that does not require a schematic. For those who prefer a schematic flow, S-Edit is available as an optional tool. Moreover, a simulation netlist can be produced for input into a photonic simulator, and photonic simulations are seamlessly incorporated through partnerships with various providers. Additionally, multiple foundries offer photonic PDKs to enhance design capabilities. Overall, this comprehensive workflow simplifies the photonic design process while catering to various designer preferences.
