Flex Logix™ Technologies, Inc., a leading supplier of embedded FPGA (eFPGA) IP and software, announced that Fan Mo has joined the company as technical director, FPGA CAD software engineering.
Mo has over a dozen years of technical experience in FPGA and structured ASIC synthesis, placement and routing, including with Synplicity and Synopsys. He has worked on high-performance place-and-route for many generations of Virtex FPGAs, timing-driven large-scale placement algorithms and global routing algorithms, as well as synthesis.
“We are honored to have someone with Fan’s experience and technical depth in large FPGA CAD software join Flex Logix to help drive software technical roadmap and implementations,” said Cheng Wang, senior vice president of engineering. “eFPGA is clearly becoming a defacto standard for chip design and we will be able to better support the growing number of customers with a stronger CAD software development team.”
Mo studied at Fudan University, Shanghai for his bachelor’s and master’s degrees and completed his Ph.D. at UC Berkeley, where he studied novel approaches to placement and routing.
