Nano Labs Ltd is a leading fabless integrated circuit (“IC”), design company and product solution provider in China. We are committed to the development of high throughput computing (“HTC”) chips, high performance computing (“HPC”) chips, distributed computing and storage solutions, smart network interface cards (“NICs”), vision computing chips and distributed rendering. We have built a comprehensive flow processing unit (“FPU”), architecture which offers solution that integrates the features of both HTC and HPC. In June 2021, we established IPOLLO PTE. LTD., our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary in Singapore, to facilitate our business expansion in the overseas IC markets.
We released our first generation of the Cuckoo series, Cuckoo 1.0, in the second quarter of 2020, which is one of the first near-memory HTC chips available in the market with a maximum bandwidth of approximately 2.27 Tbps, as well as one of the first movers in the ASIC-based Grin mining market, according to the Frost & Sullivan report.
We completed the tape-out for Cuckoo 2.0 and launched the product in the fourth quarter of 2021. We are in the design process of Cuckoo 3.0, which is expected to be completed in 2023.
We have completed the design of Darkbird 1.0 and have begun the delivery of Darkbird 1.0 in the first quarter of 2022. We are in the process of designing Darkbird 2.0.
Our proprietary HPC chips, Darkbird, embedded in our Bitcoin mining machine, iPollo, can achieve high computing power with reduced size and increased power efficiency.
In the fourth quarter of 2021, we launched our Darksteel series, which can be applied to both industrial and commercial sectors by offering distributed computing and data storage solutions.
We have successfully designed our 55 nm, 40nm, 22nm and n+1 ASIC chips and our 38nm memory chip.
As of December 31, 2022, we had registered 30 software copyrights, four IC layout-design rights and 17 patents in China, and applied for registration of 43 patents in China.
Our mission is to provide ubiquitous computing power to the Metaverse computing network with our fabless logic-memory integrated circuits.
