Interview: Eliyan CEO Ramin Farjadrad

By Trevor DeWitt, Celesta

Ramin is the inventor of over 130 granted and pending patents in communications and networking. He has a successful track record of creating differentiating connectivity technologies adopted by the industry as International standards (Two Ethernet standards at IEEE, one chiplet connectivity at OCP.) Ramin co-founded Velio Communications, which led to a Rambus/LSI Logic acquisition, and Aquantia, which IPO’d and was acquired by Marvell Technologies. Ramin’s Ph.D. EE is from Stanford.

What is the focus of your technology at Eliyan?

Eliyan was established to facilitate and accelerate chip systems. Our vision is to create the ultimate chiplet system. A chiplet represents a miniature integrated circuit (IC) with a distinct set of functions. Its purpose is to merge seamlessly with other chiplets on an interposer within a single package. Especially in this era where we're moving from SoC – which is system on chip – to system on package. Because of the limitations of Moore's Law, where we are reaching the limits of what can be achieved on chips, chiplet interconnectivity is the dominant enabler of creating the bandwidth and memory performance we will need for the future. And we're at the center of it.

What are the core problems that Eliyan’s technology solves for customers?
