Abstract
Microelectronics and integrated photonic systems play an important role in telecommunications, neuromorphic computation, and linear optical quantum computation. A major challenge for such systems is the lack of extensible physical co-simulation design tools bridging the electronic and optical domains. "piel" is an open-source microservice for "Photonic Integrated Electronics" that integrates multiple design tools for common photonic-electronic system design flows. In this talk, we will explore photonic-analogue-digtial design flows and the role open-source mixed-signal microelectronics can play both in modelling and designing these systems with some examples.
`piel` aims to provide an integrated workflow to co-design photonics and electronics, classically and quantum. It does not aim to replace the individual functionality of each design tool, but rather provide a glue to easily connect them all together and extract the system performance.
Target functionality
- Co-simulation and optimisation between integrated photonic and electronic chip design.
- System interconnection modelling in multiple domains.
- Chip and interposer design integration.
- Co-design components to circuits flow.
- Maintain a multi-tool dependency design environment.
