The announcement indicates that Synopsis is extremely confident in its core business of serving the the entire semiconductor industry, and particularly for: 1. Chip foundry/packaging/testing automation for oursourcing manufacturing customers like TSM, AMKR, CHRT, ATSTF, and so on. 2. Chip design automation particularly for the fabless chip design companies for teleco/network, wireless, video/audio/graphics, and consumer electronics products. Synopsis products/services are playing an increasingly critical role in the processes of 1. Chip shrinking from 0.18 micron to 0.13 micron and under. 2. Chip complexity increases while size reduces. 3. SoC (system on a chip) and SiP (System in a Packaging) technologies gaining popularity 4. Outsourcing is becoming the trend in the semiconductor industry. 5. Migrating from 8 inch wafer to 12 inch.
