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.
Description
TopSpice is an advanced mixed-mode circuit simulator that operates seamlessly on PCs, combining analog, digital, and behavioral simulation capabilities. It stands out in its price category by providing a sophisticated SPICE simulator, a user-friendly integrated design environment that spans from schematic capture to graphical waveform analysis, and full 64-bit support for enhanced speed and expanded memory usage. Users have the flexibility to create designs through schematic diagrams, text-based netlist (SPICE) files, or a combination of both methods. All simulation and design functionalities are accessible through either the schematic or netlist editor interfaces, facilitating a versatile workflow. Additionally, TopSpice features a powerful mixed-mode mixed-signal circuit simulator that can handle any arbitrary mix of analog components, digital elements, and high-level behavioral blocks. With this software, users can efficiently validate and fine-tune their designs, ensuring optimal performance from the overall system down to individual transistors. Its comprehensive capabilities make it a valuable tool for engineers and designers seeking precision in their simulations.
