Ramin Shirani Has Spent a Career Teaching Machines to Talk

Ethernovia
Ethernovia is a San Jose semiconductor company building a new class of high-performance automotive and edge packet processors, Ethernet PHY transceivers and switches in 7nm. Its chips act as the deterministic 'nervous system' for software-defined vehicles and physical-AI machines, scaling from 1 Gbps to 10 Gbps to move sensor and compute data with low latency and low power. Founded in 2018 by veterans of Aquantia, the company has raised more than $150 million from backers including Porsche SE, Qualcomm Ventures and AMD Ventures.
