Synopsys to end semiconductor manufacturing process control software to focus resources on AI design

Synopsys will stop selling semiconductor manufacturing process control software, Reuters reported on July 7, citing six sources familiar with the matter. The move is part of an effort to focus resources on higher-margin businesses such as AI design. Synopsys notified about 10 chipmakers including Samsung Electronics, SK hynix, Kioxia and Corvo in April and May, and will not provide new versions while continuing maintenance obligations.
