KLAYOUT
Open-source GDSII and OASIS layout viewer
GPL-3.0
ABOUT
Viewing and editing GDSII masks usually needs a licensed layout editor. KLayout opens GDSII and OASIS files, diffs layers, and runs Ruby or Python scripts so ASIC teams inspect physical layout without a commercial mask tool.
INTEGRATION GUIDE
1. Open a GDSII or OASIS stream and inspect layers before tapeout
2. Diff two chip layouts to catch DRC or merge mistakes
3. Script layer operations in Python or Ruby on a mask database
4. Measure geometries and export screenshots for a design review
