Ambiq - Q-inc

Ambiq’s SPOT chips extend a device’s battery life by powering computations with electricity leaked when transistors switch from 1 to 0

The technology

Ambiq manufactures microprocessors with an ultra-low power design that enables battery-powered endpoint devices to operate better and last longer. They offer total system advantage over energy efficiency on the chip to run sensing, data storage, analysis, inference, and communications within ~1mW.

The impact

Ambiq represents a quantum leap forward in ultra-low power design that provides the most energy-efficient sensor processing solutions on the market. Their technology has already delivered superb energy efficiency in a wide range of applications, such as brain sensing headband, safety device for your kids; a multi-function smartwatch that can last for up to 21 days on one charge; a smart ring to help track vitals 24/7 for contact-tracing in the pandemic era.

The opportunity

For the 50 billion IoT devices to be deployed in the next 5 years, energy efficiency remains the key challenge. Ambiq has proven its products to be much more powerful than any other existing substitutes in the market and will be a major driving force behind the IoT revolution.

The icing on the cake

Q Capital has collaborated with Ambiq in designing in its technology with new customers in new verticals and markets.
