Raghu co-founded Enphase Energy with Martin Fornage in 2006. He has more than 25 years of experience in the clean energy and high‑technology industries, and has been at the forefront of developing Enphase’s leading integrated energy system—with solar generation, storage, monitoring, and control. Prior to Enphase, Raghu developed
Samtec is using two major 2026 industry events to make a clear engineering argument: faster accelerators alone will not determine the performance of next-generation artificial-intelligence infrastructure. The copper and optical links connecting chips, packages, boards, racks and data centers must scale in bandwidth, … Read More
Based on Dylan Patel’s SEMI Industry Strategy Symposium (ISS): Tokens to Infrastructure presentation, one of the most important themes is the emergence of the AI Economic Stack, where every layer of artificial intelligence—from semiconductor manufacturing to cloud infrastructure, model providers, and applications—is… Read More

Tarun Verma, Managing Partner of Silicon Catalyst, delivered a keynote at Verification Futures Austin titled “Revitalizing Semiconductor StartUps.” Drawing from his role in the world’s only accelerator focused on the global semiconductor industry, Tarun outlined the sector’s resurgence, persistent… Read More
For decades, speculative execution was a brilliant solution to a fundamental bottleneck: CPUs were fast, but memory access was slow. Rather than wait idly, processors guessed the next instruction or data fetch and executed it ‘just in case.’ Speculative execution traces its lineage back to Robert Tomasulo’s work… Read More
Why Latency-Tolerant Architectures Matter in the Age of AI Supercomputing
High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) has become the defining enabler of modern AI accelerators. From NVIDIA’s GB200 Ultra to AMD’s MI400, every new AI chip boasts faster and larger stacks of HBM, pushing memory bandwidth into the terabytes-per-second range. … Read More
That datacenters are power hogs is not news, especially now AI is further aggravating this challenge. I found a recent proteanTecs-hosted panel on power challenges in datacenter infrastructure quite educational both in quantifying the scale of the problem and in understanding what steps are being taken to slow growth in power… Read More
