Study reveals engineers use 0.18um in ASIC design
A research study now available from Global Sources shows that 73% of mainland China and Taiwan engineers are using 0.18um or finer process technology in ASIC design.
ACE Awards recognise semiconductor companies that enable mainland China design engineers to develop more sophisticated electronics.
EE Times-China publisher, Mark A Saunderson, said: "The team we've assembled to judge the ACE Awards has significant technological expertise and local market knowledge".
"These qualities are essential to decide the companies that have inspired innovation in China's design in 2006".
The ACE Awards will present 24 awards for the Company of the Year, Product of the Year and Editor's Choice categories.
For Company of the Year, judges will select one winner each for Best Brand of the Year, Outstanding Services of the Year and Best Startup of the Year.
The Editor's Choice award will be presented for the most significant semiconductor technology or technical solution of 2006.
Products of the Year winners will be selected by China engineers through an online voting process.
Two winners will be selected per category.
"Our China Design Capabilities survey shows 60% of design engineers are working on original design", Saunderson said.
"China engineers are involved increasingly in the selection of chip solutions that go into their products".
"Engineers work directly with the technology and are acutely aware of the functionality and value it brings to their design work".
"For this reason, we've involved them directly in the selection of Product of the Year winners".
Global Sources is scheduled to announce the winners at a gala dinner on 5th March 2007, in Shenzhen.
The ceremony will coincide with the International IC-China Conference and Exhibition, mainland China's largest showcase of IC application technologies and high-end components.
