Prologix acquires Boda Micro to build full-process EDA solutions-EEWORLD

Collect

ProPlus Technologies Inc., a global leader in nanoscale device modeling and gigabit SPICE circuit simulation, and Broadcom Technologies Inc., a leader in the industry's first AI-driven parametric test and modeling solutions, recently announced that in order to achieve in-depth cooperation and industry integration between the two parties, ProPlus Technologies Inc. will acquire Broadcom Technologies Inc., and the transaction has been completed recently.

As a leading domestic EDA company, Prologic Semiconductor provides the industry-leading new generation of large-scale, high-precision circuit simulation and design verification platforms, device modeling library platforms and noise testing systems for advanced semiconductor process nodes. Its more than 100 customers cover the vast majority of the world's leading integrated circuit design and manufacturing companies.

Dr. Zhihong Liu, Chairman and CEO of ProPlus, said: "Industry integration is a major trend and inevitability. ProPlus's 10 years of hard work and self-improvement have proven the international competitiveness and firm belief of Chinese EDA people. The long-awaited strong alliance between ProPlus and Broadcom will surely have far-reaching significance and huge driving force for innovation. The development trend of today's IC technology requires innovation and breakthroughs in concepts. As the support of the chip design process, EDA must break through itself in order to solve practical problems for the industry. ProPlus and Broadcom are highly integrated in products and technologies and learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses. They will definitely be able to blaze their own original path for the development of China's EDA technology!"

Boda Micro is an industry-leading supplier of device models, PDK-related EDA tools and AI-driven semiconductor parameter testing solutions. It is also the world's only provider of a complete software and hardware engineering service system that includes high-precision parameterized testing, device modeling and simulation, and PDK development and verification.

Li Yanfeng, Chairman and CEO of Boda Micro Technology, said: "The competition between Prologix and Boda Micro for more than a decade is a model of healthy competition in the EDA industry, complementing and win-win on the basis of mutual respect. This integration of competition into collaboration will further give play to the innovation capabilities of both parties and help China's EDA industry; market orientation and creation of long-term sustainable value are the common values of Prologix and Boda Micro. We will correctly play the combined momentum, make good products down-to-earth, serve customers, use new technologies and new models to turn points into surfaces, change from following to leading, and sincerely cooperate with peers in the industry to jointly create an internationally competitive EDA industry. I am very much looking forward to joining Prologix; Boda Micro's team, brand and product line will benefit from Prologix's many years of technological accumulation and complementary product lines, allowing us to better serve customers at home and abroad. We will also have a complete solution from data to simulation to provide greater value to customers."

This acquisition will utilize Boda Micro's industry-first AI-driven testing and modeling technology to further enhance ProPlus' global leadership in semiconductor modeling and testing, and create the world's first data-driven innovative EDA solution that integrates testing, modeling, library building, simulation, and verification, providing customers with better products and services, promoting the deep linkage of integrated circuit design and manufacturing, and enhancing industry competitiveness.
