**`piel < 0.1` is still in active development. The API is starting to stabilize, but use it currently at your own risk.**



Microservices to codesign photonics, electronics, communications,

quantum, and more.



- Free software: MIT license

- Documentation: 

- Slack Channel: [Join `#piel` in open-source-silicon.dev](https://join.slack.com/t/open-source-silicon/shared_invite/zt-22rt521qo-C7HUHAXDJ~am33y9ZNOPlg)



## Target functionality



- Co-simulation and optimisation between integrated photonic and

    electronic chip design.

- System interconnection modelling in multiple domains.

- Experimental and simulation metadata/data management & integration.

- Chip and interposer design integration.

- Co-design components to circuits flow.

- Maintain a multi-tool dependency design environment.



`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.



## Examples



Follow the many [examples in the

documentation](https://piel.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples.html).



## Microservices Toolset



This package provides interconnection functions to easily co-design

microelectronics through the functionality of the major python-integrated microelectronics projects and

photonics via the [GDSFactory project](https://github.com/gdsfactory/gdsfactory).

Some existing microservice dependency integrations are:



- [amaranth](https://github.com/amaranth-lang/amaranth) - A modern hardware definition language and toolchain based on Python.

- [cocotb](https://github.com/cocotb/cocotb) - a coroutine based

    cosimulation library for writing VHDL and Verilog testbenches in

    Python.

- [hdl21](https://github.com/dan-fritchman/Hdl21) - Analog Hardware

    Description Library in Python

- [GDSFactory](https://github.com/gdsfactory/gdsfactory) - An open

    source platform for end to-end photonic chip design and validation

- [Openlane v2](https://github.com/efabless/openlane2) - The next generation of OpenLane, rewritten from scratch in Python with a modular architecture

- [sax](https://github.com/flaport/sax) - S-parameter based frequency

    domain circuit simulations and optimizations using JAX.

- [thewalrus](https://github.com/XanaduAI/thewalrus) -A library for

    the calculation of hafnians, Hermite polynomials and Gaussian boson

    sampling.

- [qutip](https://github.com/qutip/qutip) - QuTiP: Quantum Toolbox in

    Python



`piel` also provides a common dependency-resolved environment for all these tools, so that you just get started with designing rather than manage dependencies (which is a massive pain). Full flow environment toolsets can use `nix`, `docker`, and `local` installations following the existing open-source design flows.
