[Liu Weiping of Huada Jiutian: Domestic EDA tool coverage has increased to 85%] "Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily" reported on the 12th that Liu Weiping, chairman of Huada Jiutian, said at the 26th China International Industrial Expo that the overall development of the domestic EDA industry is constantly replenishing the product chain, and the tool coverage rate has increased from less than 30% to 85%. Some point tools have reached the internationally advanced level, but there is still a lack of support for the entire industry chain, and the performance of some tools needs to be further improved. From the perspective of subdivided application fields, the localization rate of EDA tools in the fields of flat panel display, storage, and wafer manufacturing exceeds 50%. In addition, the domestic EDA ecological platform has reached 50% coverage of major process nodes and is expected to reach 80% this year. (Kechuangban Daily reporter Guo Hui)
