Revolutionizing Chip Design: Python-Powered Workflow with Gdsfactory and Lumerical-Ansys Integration"

For the efficient development, verification, and validation of integrated circuits and components, it's crucial to establish a streamlined, customizable, and extensible workflow. Python has emerged as the go-to programming language for a wide range of applications, including machine learning, scientific computing, and engineering. Enter Gdsfactory, a Python library designed to facilitate the creation of chips across various domains such as Photonics, Analog, Quantum, MEMs, and more. Gdsfactory offers a unified syntax that simplifies the entire process of designing, verifying, and validating these complex systems. In this presentation, we'll showcase the seamless schematic-driven workflow of Lumerical-Ansys interconnect in combination with the Gdsfactory design automation tool. This combination delivers an end-to-end workflow that seamlessly integrates layout, verification, and validation. It leverages an extensible, open-source, Python-powered approach to transform your chip designs into fully validated products, ensuring a smooth and efficient development cycle.
