eSilicon, founded in 2000 and headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, is a company specializing in the design and manufacture of custom chips for electronics companies. With a focus on ASIC-proven, differentiating IP, eSilicon offers highly configurable 7nm 56G/112G SerDes and networking-optimized 16/14/7nm FinFET IP platforms. These platforms feature advanced technologies such as HBM2 PHY, TCAM, specialized memory compilers, and I/O libraries.
Throughout its history, eSilicon has raised a total of $143 million in funding, demonstrating investor confidence in its business model and growth potential. The company's expertise in custom chip design and manufacturing has positioned it as a valuable player in the semiconductor industry.
It's important to note that on November 11, 2019, eSilicon was acquired by Inphi. This acquisition has likely impacted any potential plans for an initial public offering (IPO). As a result, there is currently no available information or credible reports regarding eSilicon's IPO prospects.
Given the acquisition by Inphi, investors interested in gaining exposure to eSilicon's technology and market position may need to explore alternative investment opportunities within the semiconductor industry or consider Inphi's publicly traded stock.
