<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">I would actually be open and enter discussions regarding the PDK from our side at an early stage, even if most of the technology details for particular implementations
among PIXEurope developments are still to come. It will show that our developments, from the early stage, will be seriously oriented towards an ease of design and integration with EDA toolkits, which is pretty much considered a standard in microelectronics.

technical details. I would also suggest linking this technology overview with the new equipment being installed in the Pilot Line.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
