Our process design kits (PDKs) are the foundation for successful IC design. Built for our differentiated technology platforms, GF PDKs help you achieve first-pass silicon success, reducing risk, accelerating time-to-market and enabling innovation at scale. Our PDKs are the essential bridge between your designs and GF technologies. PDKs provide models, rules and libraries that describe the details of a semiconductor process to EDA tools, ensuring your design meets power, performance and area (PPA) targets while minimizing costly iterations. Accuracy: Silicon-proven models for analog, RF, and digital designs Efficiency: Streamlined kits for faster design cycles Confidence: Built-in checks for reliability and compliance Our PDKs are more than design kits, they are enablers of innovation. With our global ecosystem of EDA partners, silicon-proven IP and dedicated design enablement teams, we help you move from concept to tapeout faster and with confidence. Silicon-proven accuracy: Verified models for analog, RF, silicon photonics and digital designs Scalability & flexibility: Hundreds of gigabytes streamlined into interactive, easy-to-use kits Cross-platform consistency: Support for all major EDA flows Advanced reliability checks: Built-in design rule checks (DRC), layout vs. schematic (LVS) and ESD compliance Reference flows & IP integration: Silicon-validated flows and IP libraries to accelerate design time Complete signoff: End-to-end PDK enablement to take designs from concept to manufacturing Access our PDKs through GF Connect, your gateway to design resources, MPW schedules and expert support.
