What is L-Edit Photonics?

Develop your photonic integrated circuit using a layout-centric workflow that provides designers the flexibility to choose between a drag-and-drop interface and a script-based method. Both options are supported by an extensive custom IC design layout editor, which also oversees the physical verification and tape-out phases. L-Edit Photonics enables swift creation of photonic designs with its user-friendly drag-and-drop feature, which eliminates the necessity for programming. Once the design is complete, a netlist can be generated to facilitate photonic simulations. The integration of the PIC design within the IC layout editor allows users to create layouts without any coding, promoting a layout-focused approach that operates independently of a schematic. For those inclined towards a schematic flow, S-Edit serves as an optional resource. Furthermore, a simulation netlist can be derived for use in a photonic simulator, with photonic simulations being easily integrated through collaborations with various providers. Additionally, numerous foundries supply photonic PDKs to bolster design capabilities. This robust workflow not only simplifies the photonic design process but also accommodates a wide range of designer preferences and methodologies, ensuring that both novice and experienced designers can effectively create and simulate their circuits.

What is Flux?

Flux is online PCB design software for hardware startups, electronics engineers, and product teams. Teams can develop schematics, lay out printed circuit boards, run simulations, and check design rules in a web browser, without installing a desktop EDA application. The AI assistant supports component research, schematic generation from a plain-language circuit description, component placement, trace routing, and design review. Engineers remain responsible for setting constraints and approving the final design. Flux supports simultaneous editing, project comments, and access permissions for collaborative hardware development. Teams can reuse community designs and parts, check live component prices and availability, and prepare manufacturing outputs including Gerber, BOM, and pick-and-place files. For migration, Flux imports Altium ASCII and Cadence EDIF schematic files, plus KiCad component libraries. PCB layouts are not included in these imports. Trial access includes a limited AI allowance. After the trial, editing or exporting private projects and using AI require a paid subscription. AI usage is metered in Agent Compute Units (ACUs), with included allowances varying by plan. Public-project and community access remain available.
