Chapter 877 - Pandora Tool Software!
At that time, this Panda EDA system had been upgraded, but it did not achieve a very good market response in the domestic market.
At that time, Huaxing Group had become a climate, so Yang Jie directly found Yanjing Integrated Circuit Design Center to establish a joint venture Panda Software Technology Company, and took over this technical team from Yanjing Integrated Circuit Design Center.
At the beginning, Yang Jie's main task for Panda Software Technology Company was to independently develop full-process EDA design software in the field of LCD flat panel display.
Because of the breakthrough of Tianma Technology Company in the core technology of hard screen LCD screen, the domestic LCD screen industry has achieved an overwhelming advantage in a short period of time.
At that time, several domestic EDA software design companies wanted to sign exclusive purchase agreements with these manufacturers, and Yang Jie could bear it, so he asked Lu Haibo, who was the general manager and technical director, to lead the technical team to develop a set of LCD panel full-process EDA tool software with the cooperation of Tianma Technology Company.
Because of the cooperation of these experienced engineers of Tianma Technology Company, it took more than a year to develop the software stability and functionality is very powerful, which can greatly improve the design efficiency, and improve the product quality and reliability, and is the world's first set of design tools that can provide the whole process of LCD panels.
Tianma Technology Co., Ltd. is the first company to purchase this set of tool software, and then Changhong, BOE, Tomcat Group, Tianma Technology Co., Ltd., China Picture Tube, Longteng Optoelectronics Co., Ltd., Huaguan Optoelectronics and other more than a dozen companies also purchased this set of software, in a short period of time to occupy 90% of the domestic market share, this business alone makes Panda Software Technology's annual revenue exceed 200 million.
Not only that, but now these LCD panel companies in South Korea and neon countries have also purchased this set of software tools.
It can be said that Panda Software Technology Company has now become an absolute hegemon in the subdivision of LCD panel design tool software.
Panda Software Technology Co., Ltd. has gained a foothold in this segment, and with the backing of Huaxing Group, it will naturally not stop in the development of integrated circuit EDA tool software.
The EDA industry is a multidisciplinary interdisciplinary field such as circuits, software, and materials, with high technical difficulty and wide process coverage.
Panda Technology Software Co., Ltd. focuses on the tool software development of system-on-chip and the tool software for the design and development of application-specific integrated circuit chips and FPGA chips.
Huaxing Group is now making efforts in these fields, and Eagle Sauce's third-party EDA software company does not have suitable development tool software, so Panda Software Technology Company can only participate in this process to develop professional tool software.
Because these fields are in their infancy at home and abroad, Huaxing Group is still ahead in the research and development of system-on-chip chips, and Panda Software Technology Co., Ltd. has also developed professional development software in these aspects with the backing of Huaxing Group.
At present, Huaxing Group uses its own industrial software in this regard, and these software are also used as teaching materials by Meixihu University, and many universities and research institutions in China have introduced them, and the military has also purchased many sets.
Now Panda Software Technology Co., Ltd. is very good at making spicy software in these specific fields, mainly because the company's software engineers are deeply involved in the research and development of Huaxing Group in this area, and have accumulated a lot of data, and have a very clear understanding of the actual needs of these fields, so the tool software developed is very popular.
The biggest advantage of this set of alpha tool software developed by Panda Software Technology Company is that it provides a very powerful simulation tool, which is mainly due to the fact that Huaxing Group entered the game industry very early, and extended to the simulation engine on the game engine developed by itself.
This game engine has evolved to the fourth generation through continuous upgrades and improvements, and on this basis, a large number of game manufacturers have developed hundreds of game software, which has become very powerful, and is one of the best game engines at this stage.
It is precisely because of this technical foundation that the simulation software developed by Huaxing Group is also very powerful.
Huaxing Group itself is an industrial giant company, especially involving the aviation industry and mechanical equipment and the automobile industry, Yang Jie has long begun to require the group company to use simulation software in all aspects, the company has 4,000 people in the research and development of simulation software team, Yang Jie is not in a hurry to push this team to the market, his requirements for the technical team is to meet more and more simulation test software of the group company, it is indeed a very helpful role for the R & D and design of Huaxing Group Company.
It is also this kind of experience and technology accumulation close to the actual engineering design, R&D and development of Huaxing Group that makes the simulation software developed by the simulation software development department within Huaxing Group very powerful, so the simulation tools provided by Panda Software Technology Company are very accurate, and the comprehensive simulation is highly close to the characteristics of real devices, which can accurately give the signal delay data between input and output, and can find errors in the design in time, accelerate the errors in the design, speed up the design progress, and improve the reliability of the design.
This capability has made the Pandora software very popular, and customers who use it can clearly feel that the software is much better than Eagle Sauce's third-party EDA software in terms of simulation.
Moreover, this set of software integrates FPGA and ASIC chip development professional tools, and it is a whole process, because Huaxing Group in this regard can do all the whole process from design and development to production and packaging and testing, and the software developed by Panda Software Technology Company on the large amount of data provided naturally has a great advantage over those industrial software on the market.
At present, Huaxing Group uses its own industrial software in the design and development of such chips, and uses Synopsys' EDA industrial software from Eagle Sauce in the design and development of general-purpose processors and image processors.
The software of these old companies is mainly strong in the logic synthesis function and parasitic parameter extraction tools, and the efficiency is high, of course, it is not that Pandora software is worse than these old software in this regard, but the function is not so powerful, but in the simulation tool is Pandora software superior.
At present, Huaxing Group is used in the internal software purchased and its own internal software, but Pandora software is used in simulation testing.
In other words, even if Eagle Sauce's EDA software company stops supplying, Huaxing Group can still use the software that is not too bad to move forward.
