Accelicon Reports Record Revenues in 2009
Cupertino, CA – January 30, 2010 –Accelicon Technologies, Inc. (Accelicon), the leading EDA device-modeling solutions provider, reports a record year for revenue and customer-base growth in 2009. Revenues increased 30% over 2008, and the customer base to over 100 worldwide. Seven out of ten of the top semiconductor companies worldwide, all the top ten foundries, and seven out of ten of the largest fab-less semiconductor firms use Accelicon device-modeling solutions and services. Profitable, and incorporated since 2002, Accelicon claims one of the largest engineering teams dedicated to device modeling solutions worldwide.
MBP, Model Builder Program, is the flagship device-level model generation solution for Accelicon, incorporating the most advanced extraction and optimization techniques. This enables MBP users to efficiently and accurately generate and tune device-level models for transistor technologies in the analog, digital, RF, low power, high voltage and high performance areas.
MQA, Model Quality Assurance, is the market’s first, and the best, commercially available device-level model validation solution. Used by semiconductor foundries for model quality control, and fab-less semiconductor companies for model validation, MQA has become the industry standard for transistor model verification. In 2009, Accelicon added the Advanced Model Analysis option, AMA, to MQA’s capabilities. AMA provides the ability to analyze Layout Dependent Effects (LDE), due to DFM effects inherent at sub-45nm process nodes, on a model’s electrical performance.
Accelicon also has a full featured lab providing DC, RF, Noise measurement and modeling services to its customers.
"We are very pleased with our growth in the market place in 2009, as MBP and MQA continue to be adopted by semiconductor companies worldwide. I am quite proud of what our employees have accomplished, and appreciative of our customers.” said Accelicon CEO Tim K Smith. “Accelicon is well positioned to take additional market share in 2010 and continue its strong growth.”
