Simplify Electronic-Photonic Design Workflows: eBook
Semiconductor Engineering published an eBook on the natural evolution of EDA toward photonic device, circuit and system design methods. Driven by surging bandwidth demand, power and latency constraints, and the rapid adoption of silicon photonics, traditional EDA flows cannot handle photonics' complex physics and deep integration, and engineers need to move to electronic-photonic design automation (EPDA), a new design paradigm for delivering scalable, manufacturable optoelectronic systems.
