There are two professors, doctoral supervisors and two young lecturers with doctoral degrees in the research room. Committed to developing fast, accurate and high-performance electronic design automation software for ultra-deep submicron integrated circuits with independent intellectual property rights. At present, integrated circuits have developed to ultra-deep submicron stage, and tens of millions of transistors can be integrated on a chip of several square centimeters, which leads to the design of integrated circuits only through EDA platform. EDA platform is a general tool software for electronic design, which is based on computer and integrates the latest achievements of applied electronic technology, computer technology and intelligent technology. It covers all technologies in the whole process of electronic design, modeling, simulation, verification and manufacturing. Professor Wang Gaofeng led the EDA Software Engineering Research Laboratory to successfully develop the interconnection parasitic parameter extraction tool set, including device-level (transistor-level) parameter extraction and whole-chip parameter extraction. The software is mainly used to extract parasitic parameters between interconnects from the layout, including parasitic capacitance (C) and parasitic inductance (L). The circuit netlist including various parasitic parameters is output for simulation verification to ensure that the truly manufactured integrated circuit meets the design requirements. Up to now, two versions of QXT 1.0 and QXT2.0 have been designed.
