Chinese telecom equipment giant Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd. has developed its own electronic design automation (EDA) tool, eight months after the U.S. tightened its restrictions on exports of the software used to develop semiconductors.
The EDA tool — which Huawei co-developed with several domestic software companies — is for working on chips that are made with 14-nanometer technology or above, according to a transcript of a speech delivered by Huawei’s rotating Chairman Xu Zhijun at a company event in late February.
