Fujitsu Ltd is to implement a version of its ASIC design software on the Sun Microsystems workstation range: the two packages are ViewCAD, used for logic circuit design, and Zeph CAD, a logic circuit merging system, both for in-house use by semiconductor makers; the software was originally written for Fujitsu’s 32-bit A series, and the large-scale logic simulation and data transfer modules will be transferred to Sun beginning in January, and work on porting the logic input and rule checking graphics software currently running on Fujitsu’s FMR personal computers will begin in April; functionality of the software will simultaneously to be expanded to cover designs of from 50,000 to 100,000 gates.
