SPLayout

GitHub repository GitHub license Language

Silicon Photonics Design Tools for GDSII Files. It is based on gdspy(heitzmann/gdspy: Python module for creating GDSII stream files, usually CAD layouts. (github.com)) and can interact with it.

Dependency

  • Python3 (3.6, 3.7, 3.8)
  • gdspy
  • scipy
  • numpy

Installation

use pip:

pip install splayout

or download from the source and build/install with:

python setup.py install

Documentation
