About ANAFLASH
ANAFLASH is a semiconductor company working on low-power AI processing placed close to sensors. Its products include Logic-EFLASH, embedded flash memory that can be built on standard logic chip processes, Legato-Logic, a time-domain neural network processor design, and Reflex-CU, an always-on computing unit. Time-domain computing represents values as signal timing rather than voltage levels. The aim is to run pre-trained AI models on the device without cloud connectivity, using less power and with lower delay.
ANAFLASH was founded in 2019 and is based in San Jose, CA, United States. It is listed under Neuromorphic Computing, Edge Computing, Memory & Storage.

What ANAFLASH works on
Neuromorphic Computing
Neuromorphic computing builds chips that copy some features of the brain. Instead of a central processor and separate memory, a neuromorphic chip has many small units that act like neurons, each with its own local memory, joined by connections that act like synapses.
Edge Computing
Edge computing means processing data close to where it is produced, on a device or a nearby server, instead of sending everything to a distant cloud data center. In chip terms, edge processors are small, low-power chips that run software and AI models inside phones, cameras, cars and sensors.
Memory & Storage
Memory and storage hold the data that processors work on. Memory such as DRAM is fast and loses its contents when power is removed. Storage such as flash (NAND) is slower, cheaper per bit and keeps data without power.
