The Operating System for Chiplet Manufacturing
Computational physics for substrate-agnostic advanced packaging (glass, organic ABF, silicon interposer, ceramic). Impedance, isolation, yield, and design signoff — validated against a cross-solver matrix (BEM live; Palace + FastHenry2 partial). One API. One audit trail.
Only parameterized glass-TGV PDK in existence
Cadence Sigrity, Ansys HFSS, Synopsys, and Mentor have no glass substrate support. HFSS adds glass in 2026 roadmap; Sigrity Q4 2026. ChipletOS ships today with 4 substrate classes + 21 materials, 6.75M-row group-disjoint corpus, and route-backed signoff.
ChipletOS Photonic Signoff (alpha)
Sister sub-brand. Silicon-photonics IC signoff under the same validation suite as the chiplet stack — 6 primitives (waveguide / MZI / MMI / ring / grating / photonic crystal), 40 total /v1/photonics/* surface incl. PROV4 RF, AIM-Photonics-class DRC. Research Preview: analytical physics engine (~21% mean error vs FDFD-grade references); trained surrogate pending FDTD corpus. One platform, two markets. Try the live waveguide predictor.
Cross-solver validated
Cross-solver matrix (BEM live; Palace + FastHenry2 partial; OpenEMS/gprMax deferred) converges on Z₀ across 25 signoff geometries. 4.0% mean abs error vs 6 IEEE-published references. Palace full-wave FEM provides independent cross-physics truth (100 runs across 28–200 GHz). No EDA vendor offers a cross-solver witness matrix.
297 production /v1 routes · audit-grade lineage
11 file-ready patent bundles, 39 retractions documented, 5/5 cross-EDA-vendor exporters (Cadence Sigrity / Synopsys SiP / Keysight ADS / Siemens HyperLynx / Ansys HFSS) + recent additions (LEF/DEF + OASIS + Verilog-A EPDA tool + Photo-Elastic Waveguide Router) with 380+ adapter-cell verifications, drift-sentinel + scanner pipeline catches drift in CI. Buyer plugs into internal flow day 1; integration cost zero.
GDS-to-yield in one workflow
7-stage hybrid-bonding yield pipeline: CMP recess → contact mechanics → anneal → warpage → stress → diffusion → yield. 33-defect IPC/SEMI/ISO taxonomy + 12 CAPA patterns + 811K WM-811K-labeled wafer images. KLA Kiyo is post-fab inspection only — nobody else closes the design-to-fab loop.
Real route-backed signoff. Live alias. Hashed witnesses.
The dashboard at app.chipletos.com runs the production surrogate model — R² 0.9999966 / 0.029% MAPE on a geometry-disjoint 6.75M-row test set — against 60 route-backed package signoff cases (RF + isolation + yield in series) and surfaces the cross-solver witness (BEM live; Palace + FastHenry2 partial; OpenEMS/gprMax deferred), the deep ensemble CI band, and the OOD flag for every prediction. Every number renders from a SHA-256-hashed manifest.
Where ChipletOS leads. Where competitors still own.
Honest snapshot vs the four major EDA platforms. The differentiator is not "we beat them at HFSS" — it's that no commercial parameterised glass-TGV PDK exists on the market and ChipletOS is the only platform that ships one. Competitors lead on fab data; ChipletOS leads on automation and route-backed signoff.

Glass Packaging Has Outgrown Traditional EDA
The move to glass interposers and glass package substrates has created a gap that legacy EDA tools do not close. Buyers need a route from package requirements to RF, isolation, yield-risk, and downloadable artifacts instead of stitched-together point tools.
Fragmented Legacy Tools
Legacy point tools still leave glass TGV impedance, isolation, and bondability spread across different assumptions and outputs.
Unified ChipletOS Pipeline
ChipletOS packages Glass PDK, EM Isolation Compiler, and Bondability Pipeline into one route-backed signoff suite with S2P, report, manifest, and provenance.
“We are solving the ‘Physics of the Gap’ —the critical space between the silicon die and the final package.”
From Wafer State to Package Signoff
Follow one continuous operating flow instead of stitching together separate tools for stress, interconnect, isolation, yield, and final customer artifacts.
Wafer Warpage
Model wafer stress early so packaging decisions start from simulated deformation, not assumptions.
Kirchhoff plate FEM • sub-4 ms latency
Package Warpage
Track panel-level alignment risk before the stack reaches bonding and assembly constraints.
Panel deformation modeling for large-format substrates
BEM Impedance
Predict glass TGV impedance with the platform's core solver instead of guessing through analytic shortcuts.
3.57% MAE vs IEEE-published HFSS refs • glass TGV impedance PDK
Isolation Synthesis
Design isolation structures that close the loop from field behavior to manufacturable geometry.
EM Isolation Compiler isolation-signoff route • frequency-dependent margining
Yield Prediction
Connect layout, overlay, and contact mechanics to bonding yield before the mask spend lands.
Bondability Pipeline bondability-signoff route • uncertainty + calibration state
Signoff Artifacts
Export the outputs buyers can actually consume: Touchstone content, GDS export spec, report markdown, manifest hash, and provenance.
POST /v1/chiplet-suite/package-signoff • 25/25 route-backed cases • 995 active curated S2P assets

The signoff suite connects glass TGV RF, isolation margining, bondability risk, Touchstone output, GDS export specs, and provenance into one package workflow.
Unified API + CLI
Control the entire physics stack through a high-performance Python API or a secure, headless Linux CLI.
Glass TGV Impedance
The only multiconductor TGV impedance tool in existence. 3.57% MAE vs 6 IEEE-published HFSS-coaxial reference points, with a broader 18-point 5.75% RMSE witness and 9/10 geometry checks staying within 2% through 250 GHz. A strict geometry-group four-seed baseline production cohort aggregate now shows mean unseen-geometry R² 0.9751 at 4.59% MAPE on 1.5M-row training runs, with HBM4 remaining the soft regime at 0.9093 / 8.07%.15.92M ML rows plus 901K separately versioned strict buyer-regime additions. Coaxial approximation is 55–225% wrong on glass.
Isolation Synthesis
The only tool that designs isolation structures, not just analyzes them. Adjoint topology optimization to DRC-clean GDSII export in one closed loop.

148 PASS / 0 FAIL of 154 · 39 retractions · 1,970 tests
The full acceptance-gate suite re-runs on every consolidation — physics re-derivations (LIVE gates with fault injections), the multi-physics cal heads (thermal MAE 1.14 K, mechanical MAE 4.33 µm vs CalculiX FEM truth), machine-checked proofs (Z3 + cvc5 cross-checked, Lean axiom-clean), plus the hygiene spine: synthetic-data sniffer, phantom-cite detector, witness-freshness, API-contract drift, patent-bundle integrity, cross-PROV consistency. Buyer-runnable adversarial harness + cold-run DD appliance.
Current proof stack
IEEE-published HFSS-coaxial references and FastHenry2 are the published cross-references; Palace 0.16.0 (real transient FEM, n=100 multifreq) is the strongest non-VNA cross-physics check on this platform. Palace FEM is quoted at the 5 GHz extraction, with 10 of 50 simulations inside ±5% in the core regime.
The expansion lane now cites 901K separately versioned strict additions across the buyer-regime expansion runs. The geometry-challenge replay and strict 1.5M witness are explicit on the site instead of buried in docs, and the active S2P library plus package-signoff route remain available for direct SI workflows.
Executive Strategic Pillars
Predict Yield Before the Fab
The only GDS-to-yield pipeline for hybrid bonding. Seven coupled physics stages predict manufacturability before you commit silicon or glass. No more $500K mask-set surprises.
Design on Glass, Not Guesswork
No EDA vendor ships a glass-calibrated impedance model. Our BEM solver is 55–225% more accurate than the coaxial approximation on TGV geometries. 15.92M rows, 4 substrate classes + 21 materials.
