Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy · Tuesday, June 30, 2026
Etched's chip architecture is fundamentally different from older designs, as it's built for modern AI workloads like those powering ChatGPT. This involves rethinking flop organization, voltage domains, power planes, packaging, and board design to achieve superior performance.
“So if we're trying to build a chip for the modern workloads, it's going to look very different. The way we organize our flops, the way we do our voltage domains, the way we do our power planes, we're going to look super different.”
“The way the packaging is going to look different. The way the board design is going to look different.”
“So we went through everything, both on the pre-fill and the decode side.”
