Consumer Electronics Drives the EDA Industry Spurring The
Need For Innovation
With a market sized at
€780 million, up nearly 11% from the €700 million in
2005 (itself up 7% from 2004), the Electronic Design Automation market
in Europe represents around one fifth of the worldwide EDA market.
This market market
is dominated by the so called Big Three:
Cadence Design Systems, Mentor Graphics Inc and Synopsys, Inc. However,
unlike its 3rd position in the worldwide ranking, Mentor Graphics is
ranked 2nd in Europe in 2006, where it generates 28% of its worldwide
business.
Despite most worldwide
vendors’ headquarters are based in the US, Europe is base for
two global vendors in the Semiconductor IP arena, namely ARM the global
leader and Imagination Technologies.

for
Major EDA Vendors

Who are the customers for EDA vendors in Europe? In 2006 Europe
accounted for 16% of global semiconductor revenue or €31
billion. Europe is home to the following four major semiconductor
companies: STMicroelectronics in Geneva, Switzerland, Qimonda and
Infineon in Munich, Germany, and NXP in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. NXP
was formerly a division of Philips but was spun out in 2006. Qimonda, a
supplier of DRAM products, was carved out of Infineon Technologies in
2006 and went public in August 2006. All four are ranked by revenue
among the top 15 semiconductor companies in the world. In addition
there are around 150 fabless semiconductor companies in Europe as well
as hundreds of system design houses.
The
end users of EDA products are increasingly involved with consumer
electronics. The requirements of these CE products for mobility, low
cost and high volume have had a significant impact on the direction of
the EDA industry. The trends in the semiconductor industry and
corresponding trends in the EDA industry are discussed.
