Eliyan thinks its chiplet interconnect offering can best advanced packaging technologies from chip giants like Intel and TSMC to enable the next wave of high-performance chip architectures.
The Santa Clara, Calif.-based startup last November disclosed that it had raised a $40 million Series A funding round from investors, including Intel Capital and Micron Capital, to develop and ramp up production of its NuLink die-to-die interconnect technologies.
In May, the company unveiled the availability of its NuLink PHY technology, which is manufactured using TSMC’s standard 5nm process to transport data at high speeds between chiplets without the drawbacks of advanced packaging technologies.
