About Efinix
Efinix makes small, low-power FPGAs, which are chips whose circuits can be reconfigured after manufacture. Its Trion and Titanium families use what the company calls the Quantum architecture, a fabric of programmable tiles aimed at edge AI and wearable devices. The name refers to this chip design and has no connection to quantum computing. The company is based in Santa Clara, California.
Efinix was founded in 2012 and is based in Santa Clara, CA, United States. It is listed under FPGAs, Edge Computing.

What Efinix works on
FPGAs
An FPGA, or field-programmable gate array, is a chip whose internal wiring can be changed after it is made. It contains a grid of small logic blocks, memory blocks and programmable connections. Loading a new configuration file, called a bitstream, turns it into a different digital circuit.
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.
