About Abacus Semiconductor
Abacus Semiconductor Corporation is a semiconductor design company founded in 2020 and headquartered in California. The company develops processors, accelerators and powerful, intelligent Multi-Homed memory subsystems for HPC applications, including classic High-Performance Computing, AI (including generative AI), Big Data and in-memory databases. The patented and patent-pending Heterogeneous Accelerated Compute Architecture (Kloth Architecture) extends beyond the classic von-Neumann and Harvard architecture boundaries and integrates processors, accelerators and memory via unified interfaces in order to eliminate I/O bottlenecks and the Memory Wall. Target applications are on-premises data centers and Smart Carrier Edge environments with limited power consumption. The US location is in San Jose in the heart of Silicon Valley. In Germany, the company maintains an office in Kiel (Abacus Semiconductor GmbH) for firmware development, analog ASIC design and OS kernel customization for European customers.
