Chapter 329: Leaving the small family behind for everyone

Before you know it, another Lunar New Year is coming.

During everyone's continuous work for many days, the progress of EDA tool development was a little ahead of schedule.

If nothing else, the first version of the EDA tool can be completed within a month.

At this time, some employees of Fulong Technology took the initiative to apply for voluntary overtime.

"Mr. Luo, we won't go home for the New Year this year. Now that the project is about to be completed, we will work harder and strive to complete the entire set of EDA tools in the first month and enter the testing phase."

"That's right, Mr. Luo, it doesn't matter if you don't go home for the New Year for a year. Every day now is very important, so we'd better try not to delay it."

Luo Wenkun had never thought before that his employees would be able to offer to work overtime during the Chinese New Year, even without going home.

You should know that most of the company's employees do not live in Jijing, and they may not be able to return home once a year.

It's not that they don't want to go home, it's just that they would rather abandon their home temporarily for the sake of everyone.

Luo Wenkun was also very moved by their willingness to do so.

Because more and more employees voluntarily applied to work overtime in the company during the Chinese New Year, Luo Wenkun had to explain this matter to everyone.

"In principle, the company does not encourage everyone to work overtime during the Chinese New Year. Our work is indeed very important, but it will not affect our normal life. The Spring Festival is our traditional Chinese festival. It is important for everyone to go home to celebrate the New Year and reunite with their families.

The rights that we should have. Leaders of various departments in the company are not allowed to encourage everyone to work overtime during the Chinese New Year for any reason."

Luo Wenkun really comes from the bottom of his heart and doesn’t want everyone to work overtime during the Chinese New Year.

This is a very difficult thing for employees whose homes are not in Jijing.

It is completely acceptable to delay the progress for a few days.

Luo Wenkun was a little worried because these employees who volunteered to work overtime made other employees too embarrassed to go home for the New Year.

But in order to accompany these employees who volunteered to work overtime, Luo Wenkun must also set an example and stick to the company together with the employees.

After learning the news, Xu You, like Luo Wenkun, chose not to go home for the New Year.

Due to Xu You's current status, even if he goes home to celebrate the New Year, it will be quite troublesome.

Since so many employees offered not to go home during the New Year, Xu You didn't want to go back and forth, so he decided to stay in Jijing so that he could keep up to date with the latest progress of the project.

After learning that Xu You would not go home this year, Xu Zhou decided to take his family to Jijing to visit Xu You and spend a few days in Jijing during the Chinese New Year.

Xu You also agreed with this proposal. This is a very good way to get the best of both worlds.

In this way, Xu You, Luo Wenkun, and many employees of the company spent New Year's Eve in Jijing.

With the joint efforts of employees.

The first version of the EDA tool was finally completed in the first month of the year.

Next, we entered the EDA testing work.

In testing work, personnel responsible for chip design are needed to help with software testing.

Because they were accustomed to mainstream EDA, they were not very adaptable to this new EDA software at first.

However, after getting used to the new EDA interface, their evaluation of this EDA is generally very high.

In order to highlight the theme of "Godson", this EDA has an all-Chinese operating interface. For Chinese people, the learning cost will be much lower.

The software supports common hardware languages ​​such as Verilog and VHDL, and its various operations are simpler than several mainstream EDAs.

After a stage of testing, the designers in charge of the chip summarized some bugs and deficiencies and responded to the software department.

There are more than a hundred of these bugs, software deficiencies, etc. in total.

Of course, for a brand new software, this is already an excellent performance.

After Luo Wenkun learned the news, he immediately informed Xu You.

"The overall performance of our Fulong EDA in the first round of testing is quite good. Although there are some bugs and shortcomings, the flaws are outweighed. According to colleagues in the chip design department, Fulong EDA is really very simple to operate and simulates

The simulation level is also very high, no less than those of mainstream EDA. It is estimated that after two more rounds of testing, it can be officially put into use. The release of our first chip is getting closer and closer."

In fact, regarding the chip design work, the chip design department has basically completed it through other EDA.

However, due to copyright issues, these chips designed through other EDA cannot be manufactured.

Even if there are no technical problems, you will still face the risk of being sued later.

But as long as Fulong EDA is officially launched, the previous chip design work does not need to be completely pushed back.

Just changing a tool, the main idea is exactly the same.

"Great, I will spend more time on this these days, try to help the team, and solve all these bugs and deficiencies as soon as possible."

With the joint efforts of Xu You and his employees.

After two more rounds of testing, Fulong EDA has finally solved all the problems that have arisen and will be officially released soon.

The publicity department of Fulong Technology Company officially announced the news.

"Fulong EDA, independently developed by Fulong Technology, will be officially released soon. This is the first EDA tool in China that integrates digital design, analog design, functional verification, manufacturing yield and other functions. In the future, we will achieve

Chip design is on the cloud, and major chip design companies are welcome to trial Fulong EDA."

Many people do not understand the concept of EDA, what exactly EDA does, and how it is related to chip manufacturing.

But in the industry, this news undoubtedly caused heated discussions.

"Fulong Technology... actually independently completed the research and development of EDA in the entire industry chain? How is this possible?"

"This news does sound incredible. However, it is said that Xu You is one of the shareholders of this company and has brought great help to the company in the research and development of various technologies. Xu You is not only a physicist

He also has extremely high attainments in information science."

"With our own EDA industry chain, we are one step closer to achieving complete chip independence. I just don't know how well Fulong Technology's EDA is doing and whether it can design high-quality chips."

After Fulong EDA passed the company's final test, the company's chip design department has begun to use Fulong EDA to carry out chip design work.

Luo Wenkun, Xu You, and the company's senior executives discussed EDA's future issues.

"Although the cost of migrating chip design to the cloud is high, in order to make Fulong EDA truly become a mainstream EDA in the future, it will be a matter of time before migrating to the cloud."
