Vertical Semiconductor Raises $11 Million to Deliver the Next Wave of Power for AI Chips and Data Centers (Business Wire)
|
|
|
MIT spinout debuts vertical GaN power conversion technology designed to dramatically reduce heat, shrink the footprint of power systems, and lower energy costs in AI infrastructureBOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Vertical Semiconductor (Vertical), a semiconductor company spun out of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), today announced $11 million in seed funding led by Playground Global to help accelerate development of vertical GaN (gallium nitride) transistors, the next wave of power for AI chips in data centers. Additional investors include JIMCO Technology Ventures, milemark•capital, and Shin-Etsu Chemical.
The surge of AI workloads is straining data centers, and power delivery has become the critical bottleneck. The company's vertical GaN transistors ease that bottleneck by pushing energy conversion closer to the chip with less power loss and heat, which is critical for powering the future of compute. This breakthrough reduces energy loss, cuts heat, and simplifies infrastructure, improving ef...
