Qiyunfang, a unit of Chinese semiconductor equipment maker SiCarrier, has launched two new electronic design automation (EDA) software products in Shenzhen.

SiCarrier, which is backed by the Shenzhen government and works with Huawei, introduced software for schematic capture and printed circuit board (PCB) design at the WeSemiBay Semiconductor Ecosystem Expo 2025.

China is seeking to reduce its reliance on foreign EDA vendors, a field dominated by US-based firms such as Cadence Design Systems, Synopsys, and Siemens EDA.

Qiyunfang said its software supports a range of domestic operating systems, databases, and middleware, and has already been adopted by over 20,000 engineers.
