Photonic Model Development Kit
Proven, automated, cross-simulator photonic compact model library (CML) generation. CML Compiler automates the creation, maintenance and QA testing of INTERCONNECT and Verilog-A photonic compact model libraries (CMLs) from a single data source of characterization measurements and 3D simulation results.

Increased Productivity
Focus on component design and measurement and let CML Compiler do the rest:
- Automated and reproducible generation of version-controlled CMLs
- Structured input with template and data validation
- Automated test case generation
- Supports multiple source data formats including .mat and .json
IP Protected INTERCONNECT and Verilog-A Models from a Single Data Source
Generate Verilog-A and INTERCONNECT from a single data source using characterization data augmented by simulation data
- When characterization data is not available or not possible, augment using Lumerical’s industry-leading 3D component-level simulation tools
- Generate both fixed and parameterized elements
- Augment rich existing set of models with your own custom models
- Offers IP protection through CML encryption
CMLs Support Multiple EPDA Workflows
Generate high-quality CMLs from a single data source that can be used in multiple EPDA tools and workflows:
- The industry’s only offering of cross-simulator Verilog-A photonic models
- Co-simulate using Lumerical’s photonic integrated circuit simulator with 3rd party electrical simulation tools
High-Quality Compact Models
- Comprehensive model set offers high accuracy and optimized efficiency in the time and frequency domain
- Automatically generated QA tests ensures models accurately predict measured performance
- Has been extensively used to generate CMLs for production foundry PDKs including those from AIM Photonics, CompoundTek, imec and TowerJazz
