US lets China buy semiconductor design software again

July 03, 2025

The US has lifted export restrictions on semiconductor design software to China, reversing a controversial policy imposed just six weeks ago that had threatened to cripple China’s chip design capabilities. 

The three leading semiconductor design software providers, Synopsys, Cadence Design Systems, and Germany’s Siemens, announced they had been notified that export license requirements for business in China are no longer in place.
