The combination of CPU and Chiplet technology is an inevitable trend in the industry from both the technical and commercial perspectives.
M2 Semi(Chinese:超摩科技) recently completed its Series Pre-A funding round with hundreds of millions of CNY, led by Delta Capital(Chinese:达泰资本).
The proceeds will be used to develop high-performance cloud CPUs based on Chiplet, and facilitate mass production, commercialization, and talent recruitment
Ye Weigang(Chinese:叶卫刚), the Founding Managing Partner of Delta Capital, claimed that Arm server CPUs are one of the fastest growing segments of high-performance computing chips worldwide, and there is a huge demand in China.
M2 Semi is one of the few established companies in China that has mass-produced 5nm and 7nm chips. Its flexible high-performance cloud CPU architecture takes full advantage of the latest process, and actively adopts Chiplet technology to meet the diverse needs of server vendors, Internet giants, and a variety of cloud-based high-performance scenarios.
Founded in January 2021, M2 Semi is a designer of high-performance CPU based on Chiplet and is one of the first UCIe members in mainland China.
From 1960 to 1990 is the semiconductor 1.0 era (IDM model). From 1990 to 2020 is the semiconductor 2.0 era (Fab/OSAT/IP Vendor). The next thirty years will be the semiconductor 3.0 era which features the comprehensive development of Chiplet. It has been well acknowledged that Chiplet has become the key to creating value in the semiconductor industry chain.
Its competitors include Verisilicon(Chinese:芯原股份), Innosilicon(Chinese:芯动科技), and Synopsys.
