LogicVision Captures 72% of Growing BIST Market

San Jose, Calif., December 5, 2002 - LogicVision, Inc., (NASDAQ:LGVN), a leading provider of embedded test for integrated circuits and systems, today announced that according to Gartner Dataquest Inc., it captured 72 percent of the Built-in Self-test (BIST) market in 2001.1 Dataquest states that LogicVision grew its market share from 52 percent in 20002 to 72 percent in 2001. Gartner Dataquest stated that "BIST is the main exception to the otherwise lackluster outlook for DFT [Design For Test]. Market growth was fantastic in 2001."1 BIST is a critical enabling technology and the most efficient test solution to address the complex SOC (system on a chip) market--especially where hierarchal designs are concerned. With BIST's unique methodology, micro testers are designed onto the chip making an "intelligent" chip able to test itself. Dataquest reports LogicVision's embedded test technology and the general BIST technology market share under one BIST segment.

"LogicVision is the clear leader in the important BIST technology segment, positioning us to benefit from growth in the larger SOC market, which Dataquest expects to reach $22 billion in 2006," noted Vinod Agarwal, president and CEO of LogicVision. "Our increasing market share in both Embedded Test and BIST stems from our ability to help chip designers and manufacturers meet the time-to-market and test challenges inherent in developing more complex SOC devices."
