Design a silicon photonic ring-based WDM transceiver with EPDA
This webinar will present state-of-the-art electronic-photonic design automation (EPDAs) solutions jointly developed by Ansys Lumerical and Cadence. To demonstrate the overall EPDA design workflow, we approach the complex task of designing an integrated silicon photonic wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) system that consists of 4-channel ring-based transceivers and electronic mixed-signal circuits. The webinar provides technical details on the transceiver's components and circuit-level design workflows.
