Creators of Diamond Cooling (GaN-on-Diamond) which will power technologies in Space, EV, Natural Energy, AI, and more
About us
At Akash Systems, Inc. (San Francisco, CA), we design and make some of the world's most energy efficient RF Power Amplifiers, and the CubeSats (small LEO orbital satellites). Our innovation is made possible by the breakthrough materials we use: gallium nitride (GaN)-on-Diamond wafers. In GaN-on-Diamond, the hottest parts of a transistor is brought to within tens of nanometers of diamond - the world's most thermally conductive material. The effect is a cooler state of operation - dramatically improving energy efficiency, and reducing a system's size, weight, and operating costs.

Thank you to Dan Primack at Axios for highlighting Akash Systems and our journey to secure CHIPS Act funding. This represents more than just a financial boost—it’s a step toward building the U.S. as a powerhouse in semiconductor technology and infrastructure. “A critical part of the success of CHIPS for America is ensuring the United States is a global leader in every part of the semiconductor supply chain. Through this proposed investment in Akash, we are taking a critical step forward to fulfill that mission." U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo. As an American company committed to far-reaching innovations such as our diamond-cooled GPU Servers for AI and data centers, we’re excited to lead the way in strengthening domestic tech capabilities.

Akash Systems reposted this
Today, the Biden-Harris Administration announced that the U.S. Department of Commerce and Akash Systems have signed a non-binding preliminary memorandum of terms (PMT) to provide up to $18.2 million in proposed direct funding under the CHIPS and Science Act. The proposed investment would support the construction of a 40,000 square foot cleanroom space within an existing building to transform it into a facility for semiconductor manufacturing. This proposed CHIPS funding, together with funding from Akash, venture capital firms, and other private investors, would support a $121 million investment and enable the company to leverage its intellectual property and experience of developing semiconductor technologies that serve important end markets, such as communications and the defense industrial base, while also creating over 400 direct manufacturing and construction jobs.
