Why Use RSoft Photonic Device Compiler

Transform simulated photonic devices into reusable design components that support circuit-level photonic design workflows. 

RSoft Photonic Device Compiler helps engineers create custom photonic building blocks, augment existing foundry PDKs, and generate reusable components for photonic integrated circuit (PIC) design workflows. By combining photonic device simulation, compact model generation, layout creation, and PDK development, engineers can move optimized device designs into circuit-level photonic design environments more efficiently. This workflow helps connect detailed device simulation with broader PIC implementation, layout, and verification activities. Based on internal RSoft portfolio materials, the tool is positioned for creating foundry-specific building blocks and custom photonic components that support PIC development workflows.
