GDSII Importer
GDSII importer with PDK layer stack support.
BlenderGDS is an add-on for importing GDSII semiconductor layout files directly into Blender as accurate 3D layer stack visualizations. It supports popular open-source PDKs (IHP SG13G2/CMOS5L, SkyWater SKY130, GlobalFoundries GF180MCU) and custom YAML configurations, with per-layer materials, selective region cropping, and automatic scene setup.
