Description

ExpressPCB is thrilled to unveil a range of exciting upgrades to our ExpressPCB Plus software! Among these enhancements is the new Schematic Link and Netlist Validation feature, which ensures reliable design validation from schematic to layout before you begin manufacturing. This update enables users to seamlessly connect the schematic netlist from ExpressSCH to the PCB layout in ExpressPCB Plus. Additionally, we've introduced a "Net Connection" tool that allows users to easily highlight connected pads in a net, simplifying the board layout process. The software now offers comprehensive validation of the entire ExpressPCB Plus layout, ensuring it aligns with the ExpressSCH schematic netlist. Users will also benefit from detailed error reporting, identifying any missing or extra components, pins, connections, or other design elements. Errors can be highlighted, and users have the option to zoom in on specific locations for easier correction. This streamlined process allows for quick resolutions and validations in one convenient tool, and users can export error reports in Microsoft Excel format for further analysis. These enhancements aim to boost design accuracy and efficiency, making the entire process smoother for users.

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.
