Select the license file (nodelocked or network server only) or the SCL license server (network client only) when prompted.
- Linux: See instructions in the Installation Guide below.
Download the Photonic Solutions Installation Guide with detailed instructions for installing on Windows or Linux operating systems. Contact Support in case you experience issues with installation or enabling the licenses.
Process Design Kits
Process Design Kits (PDKs) provide photonic IC designers the ability to use pre-qualified and characterized building blocks from which to build up their circuits. This saves designers time and reduces potential errors.
PDKs can include:
- Libraries of passive and active photonic building blocks
- Die and package templates
- Frequency and time-domain models
- Optical properties for custom component design and phase-aware routing
- Optical and manufacturing verification rules
- Automated streamout to final, foundry-specific GDS format
Synopsys Photonic IC Platform provides access to more than 30 foundry-specific PDKs to provide PDK-driven custom and hybrid design capabilities.
PDKs can be obtained from the foundry of your choice. Contact [email protected] if you need assistance.
