FADU Inc. (Co-CEOs: Jihyo Lee and Ehyun Nam), the fabless semiconductor company specializing in datacenter solutions, announced on April 23 (local time) that it was officially invited as one of the customers to exhibit in the Innovation Zone at the TSMC 2025 North America Technology Symposium held at the Santa Clara Convention Center in California, USA, paving the way to connect with potential global customers.

At its exhibition booth, FADU showcased next-generation solid-state drive (SSD) controllers for datacenters and power optimized semiconductor technologies, reinforcing its position as a key player in the global AI semiconductor ecosystem.

FADU was invited to participate in the Innovation Zone exhibition for the first time, an exclusive platform dedicated to showcasing cutting-edge technologies developed by start-up companies from around the world. This unique opportunity highlighted how FADU, alongside other exhibitors, is driving technology advancements across various industries through its collaboration with TSMC. At the event, FADU introduced its flagship PCIe 5.0 enterprise SSD controller, the FC5161, along with its SSD products (U.2, E1.S), and its in-house developed Power Management IC (PMIC) and Power Loss Protection IC (PLP IC), presenting a comprehensive solution for AI-driven datacenter needs.

Notably, the upcoming PCIe 6.0 controller that is scheduled for release in next year, attracted significant attention for its power efficiency—delivering more than double the performance-per-watt compared to previous models. This innovation addresses one of the most pressing challenges in the AI era: the rising cost of datacenter operation.

As enhancing power consumption efficiency becomes a top priority for global tech giants, FADU is proactively responding to this need by building a solid portfolio of power optimized solutions tailored for large scale and AI datacenters.

In addition to enterprise SSD controllers, FADU also showcased Power Management IC and Power Loss Protection (PLP) IC solutions at the event, positioning itself as a full-fledged fabless company delivering total power optimization solutions for next generation datacenters.

FADU has already been collaborating with major global hyperscalers and is now accelerating its expansion into Asian markets, including China and Taiwan, diversifying its customer base.

Co-CEO Jihyo Lee commented, “Being invited to the TSMC Technology Symposium reflects the growing recognition of FADU’s technology within the global semiconductor industry. Going forward, we will continue to develop future growth technologies based on our controller expertise and expand collaborations with global customers and partners to solidify our role as a leading fabless company for AI-era datacenters.”
