PowerLattice, a semiconductor startup specialising in power delivery, has emerged from stealth mode with $25 million in Series A funding, bringing its total funding to $31 million. Founded in 2023 by former Qualcomm, NUVIA, and Intel engineers, the company is focused on developing chiplets that significantly reduce power consumption in AI accelerators, GPUs, and data centre processors. Their power delivery chiplet reportedly reduces compute power needs by more than 50% by tightly coupling power and compute resources.
PowerLattice's solution integrates voltage regulation directly into the processor package, minimising energy loss and improving performance. The chiplets are already in production at TSMC, with customer evaluations expected in the first half of 2026. The company's technology is designed to be modular and easily integrated into existing system-on-a-chip designs.
Former Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger, now a general partner at Playground Global, is backing PowerLattice, highlighting the importance of efficient power delivery for future AI advancements. PowerLattice's chiplets aim to address the growing power demands of AI and data centres, where energy consumption is becoming a critical limitation.
