ESD Alliance (original) (raw)

The Electronic System Design Alliance (ESD Alliance) is the international association of companies that provide tools and services for electronic design automation. Until 2016 it was known as the Electronic Design Automation Consortium (EDA Consortium, EDAC). In 2018, the ESD Alliance became a SEMI Technology Community. The 2016 name change reflects the expansion of its charter to address the changes in the industry towards a more system-oriented approach, embracing both integrated circuits design (its past focus) and electronic systems design.
