- Primarius Technologies Co. Ltd. Class A is an electronic design automation (EDA) and semiconductor characterization company headquartered in Shanghai, China. Founded in 2010, the company specializes in developing advanced EDA software tools, semiconductor testing hardware systems, and engineering services focused on device modeling, circuit simulation, design-for-yield, and design-technology co-optimization across integrated circuit design and manufacturing workflows. The company operates globally with research and development centers, sales offices, and technical support facilities across mainland China, the United States, South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan.
The company operates across three primary business segments: EDA Software Solutions, Semiconductor Testing and Characterization Hardware, and Semiconductor Engineering Services. Its product and service offerings include: device modeling and parameter extraction software platforms, comprising BSIMProPlus, MeaSure, NoisePro, and PCellLab; circuit simulation and verification software, featuring the NanoSpice family consisting of NanoSpice parallel SPICE simulator, NanoSpice Giga fast SPICE simulator, and NanoSpice Pro mixed-signal and memory simulator; design-for-yield and reliability analysis software, including NanoYield and NanoWave; design-technology co-optimization tools and standard cell library characterization platforms, including NanoCell and LibCheck; integrated analog design environment software, centered on the NanoDesigner schematic and layout platform; wafer-level low-frequency and random telegraph signal noise measurement hardware systems, including the 9812DX, 9812D, and 9812A series; fast multi-channel semiconductor electrical parameter testing systems, led by the FS-Pro test system; and comprehensive engineering services, encompassing process design kit development, customized SPICE device modeling, wafer-level reliability characterization, and turnkey laboratory testing solutions.
Primarius Technologies serves global semiconductor foundries, integrated device manufacturers, memory chipmakers, and fabless design companies. In recent operational developments, the company has expanded its product portfolio through the release of upgraded versions of its NanoDesigner platform integrated with artificial intelligence-driven design optimization capabilities and enhanced modeling tools tailored for advanced 2.5D and 3D multi-die chiplet packaging architectures. The company has deepened its technical collaborations and process design kit qualifications with leading global semiconductor foundries, including TSMC, SMIC, and Samsung Foundry, to support advanced FinFET, gate-all-around, and wide-bandgap power semiconductor manufacturing nodes. Additionally, the company has continued its strategic expansion through acquisitions and alliances, integrating specialized technology assets such as Entasys and Magwel to bolster its capabilities in digital implementation signoff, electromagnetic extraction, and power device modeling.
