AGILENT is acquiring Accelicon Technologies, a Beijing-based company which provides device-level modelling and validation software for the electronics industry.
The transaction is expected to be completed in 60 to 90 days.
According to Agilent, the acquisition will enhance its leadership in semiconductor device modelling.
Today’s electronics research and development design cycles require accurate and verified device models in order to cope with tighter timelines, smaller technology nodes, new materials, fabrication constraints and more demanding device layouts.
As a result, device modelling continues to be one of the most critical parts of the electronics design flow.
Agilent says the acquisition of Accelicon’s technology and team will allow it to offer a broader portfolio of modelling solutions. It will be able to offer solutions covering the range of R&D capabilities from device modelling to simulation and measurement.
Accelicon sells the SPICE model analysis solution for model quality assurance. Accelicon's MQA solution offers the industry's first model verification platform and provides a critical link between fab and design, comparing, documenting and validating foundry-supplied models.
