Celera Corporation
Celera is an Alameda-based analog semiconductor company using AI to automate the historically artisanal craft of analog IC design. Its ChipHUB platform combines proprietary machine-learning agents with decades of analog expertise to deliver custom analog and mixed-signal chips up to 10x faster than legacy vendors. In March 2025, Celera became the first company to sample an analog IC entirely designed by autonomous software.
