Luceda IPKISS
Enhance your photonic IC design flow with IPKISS' single-component definition and parametric approach for PIC design and simulation.
Luceda IPKISS takes you through the complete design flow:
Use a standard language to manage your designs, models, and IP in one single platform through a code-based approach.
AUTOMATE AND INTEGRATE ALL ASPECTS OF THE DESIGN FLOW IN ONE TOOL
Leverage one standard language
The IPKISS Python-based Platform offers one standard language for all aspects of your design flow: PIC design, model libraries, IP management.
Reduce design errors
Design and simulate parametric components and circuits from one central platform and reduce the chance of design errors.
Improve the time to market
Document, maintain and reuse your IP with a code-based approach. Adopt an iterative design cycle and reduce the time to market.
Design manufacturable PICs
IPKISS enables you to build and manage your own design library next to offering access to a wide variety of foundry process design kits (PDKs).
