Core Viewpoint - The U.S. has lifted export restrictions on Electronic Design Automation (EDA) software to China, allowing major companies like Siemens and Synopsys to resume supply, while Cadence has not yet officially responded [1][2].

Group 2: Market Dynamics - Prior to the lifting of restrictions, the three major EDA companies faced limitations on software key renewals and IP updates, which affected their operations in China [3]. - Despite the restrictions, EDA tools remained usable under existing licenses, but additional services and new orders were not supported until late June when restrictions began to ease [3]. - The high market concentration in the EDA industry is evident, with Synopsys, Cadence, and Siemens collectively holding over 70% market share according to TrendForce [4]. Group 3: Domestic Industry Response - In response to the international EDA supply limitations, domestic EDA companies have initiated free trials of their products to capture market share [4]. - The Chinese semiconductor industry is encouraged to actively adopt domestic EDA tools, as the U.S. restrictions present an opportunity for integration and development within the local market [4].
