Solid Silicon Joins OpenPOWER Foundation

Today, we are pleased to announce that Solid Silicon, a fabless semiconductor company based in Colorado, US, has joined the OpenPOWER Foundation as a Platinum member.

The OpenPOWER Foundation is committed to an open, community-driven technology development process, which is critical to the continued growth of open collaboration around the POWER architecture.

“OpenPOWER Foundation is pleased to welcome Solid Silicon to the foundation and our community, and looks forward to our collaboration in community-driven open development that broadens customer computing choice”, said James Kulina, Executive Director, OpenPOWER Foundation.

Solid Silicon Corporation is developing open source software and secure chip designs based on standardized, self-sovereign, future-proof silicon to give developers the ability to own, control, and trust their computing devices down to the silicon.

Solid Silicon currently is developing two new silicon devices based on the OpenPOWER ISA. The first is the X-class chip line that targets Edge/IoT applications while the second line, the S-class chip, targets Data Center applications. Both chip lines will adopt the latest POWER ISA 3.1 specifications leading to new product capabilities within the OpenPOWER ecosystem.
