Using Calibre eqDRC design rule checking for curved layouts in silicon photonics [Whitepaper]
Silicon photonics integrated circuit components include unconventional geometries, such as curvilinear (non-Manhattan) shapes. Calibre eqDRC technology enables designers to verify such components by applying multi-dimensional tolerance checking and using rule-based equations that model the behaviour of the complex typical structures. With the accuracy of Calibre eqDRC verification, silicon photonics designers can enjoy more design freedom with confidence in the results.
