MILPITAS, Calif., April 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Electronic System Design Alliance, a SEMI Strategic Technology Community representing members in the electronic system and semiconductor design ecosystem, today welcomed AMEDAC of Hefei, China, to its growing member community.

AMEDAC is a startup providing semiconductor smart manufacturing electronic design automation (EDA) solutions including Optical Proximity Correction (OPC), wafer patterning synthesis, device simulation and yield improvement. It joined the ESD Alliance because “it is an excellent semiconductor design ecosystem, and its resources and the connectivity it provides will help AMEDAC amplify its voice,” remarks Jacky Ni, AMEDAC’s CEO.

“As a startup dedicated to smart manufacturing solutions, we need opportunities to promote our work, join industry collaborations, and provide first-class products. We have no doubt that joining the ESD Alliance is essential to meet our needs,” added Ni.

“Startups like AMEDAC are vitally important to the continuing success of the semiconductor and electronic system design community,” says Bob Smith, executive director of the ESD Alliance. “The ESD Alliance is delighted to welcome AMEDAC and will work with its executives to ensure its expectations are met.”

AMEDAC is both a member of the ESD Alliance and SEMI, the global industry association representing the worldwide electronic product design and manufacturing chain.
