Abstract—Optical network-on-chip (ONoC) is a well accepted emerging technology for use as a communication platform for system-on-chip (SoC). Due to its heterogeneous nature, tools for its design and analysis have become a necessity. In this paper, we present a tool for the exploration and validation of ONoC building block design parameters. The proposed methodology explores and verifies the joint feasibility of optoelectronic and photonic devices specifications for successful and reliable data communication. This is achieved through building a library of matching and chainable sets of optoelectronic and photonic devices. This library can be used for ONoC system-level design and analysis as well as during the design phase of these devices.
