Driving Nex-Gen
Co-Packaged Optics Engineering Solutions

Enabling system-level co-packaged optics design with physics-based insights from photonic devices and circuits to, electronic ICs, packages, interconnects, power, thermal , and reliability – early through signoff.

ELIMINATE BLIND SPOTS

Unify CPO Design Across Domains, Early Exploration Through Signoff

Co-packaged optics (CPO) presents a multiphysics, multi-die system challenge that demands tight coordination across photonics, electronics, packaging, power, and thermal domains. Ansys, part of Synopsys, connects these disciplines through physics accurate, system aware modeling—enabling teams to explore architectures early, eliminate multiphysics blind spots, and push performance margins that would otherwise be unattainable. By preserving fidelity across scales and design stages in foundry aligned, manufacturable models—and supporting scalable execution—teams can reduce the risks in silicon-to-system design and signoff with certainty.

Co Packaged Optics CPO Solutions

Photonic Devices and Optical I/O Design

Ansys, part of Synopsys, enables physics accurate modeling and optimization of PIC devices and optical coupling—capturing loss, alignment sensitivity, thermal drift, and packaging effects to ensure robust performance at scale.

Thermal-Aware and Multiphysics CPO Design

Across PIC, electronics and packaging, we deliver thermal‑aware design and multiphysics analysis to expose thermal crosstalk, stress effects, and performance drift early—before margins collapse at integration.

Electrical Robustness and Reliability

Our solutions enable signoff grade signal, power, EMIR, and ESD analysis in dense multi-die environments—capturing short reach electrical effects and electro optic interactions critical to reliable CPO operation.

System-Aware Multi-Die Integration

Enable system‑aware PIC/EIC co‑design and multi‑die integration using PDK‑centric, manufacturable models and reference workflows—preserving physics fidelity while scaling execution from early exploration through signoff.
