# Flex Logix

> Flex Logix built programmable logic that chipmakers could embed in their own silicon. Its EFLX eFPGA IP lets customers update functions after fabrication; the same interconnect thinking led to the InferX edge AI chip and, later, licensable AI and DSP IP. It stopped selling the standalone InferX X1 chip in 2023 and was acquired by Analog Devices in 2024.

- **Founded:** 2014
- **Headquarters:** Mountain View, United States
- **Founders:** Geoffrey Tate (Co-founder and CEO), Cheng C. Wang (Co-founder and CTO), Dejan Markovic (Co-founder and UCLA professor)
- **Products:** EFLX embedded FPGA IP, InferX X1, InferX Hawk, InferX AI and DSP IP, EFLX 3.0 and eXpreso compiler
- **Notable:** Emerging from stealth in 2015, its founding technical team received an ISSCC Lewis Award for work describing EFLX interconnect., Reported more than 25 worldwide customers and more than 40 design wins by June 2024., Reported over 100 patents and patent applications by its tenth anniversary in 2024.

## Products & services

- **EFLX embedded FPGA IP** — Programmable logic cores tiled into customers' SoCs or ASICs, with compilation tools for updates after fabrication.
