北京2026年9月11日 /美通社/ -- Analog Devices, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADI)與Alif Semiconductor宣布,雙方已達成最終協議,ADI將以13.5億美元全現金交易收購Alif。
人工智能正邁入新階段:模型不再局限于解讀文本與圖像,而是開始理解語境并與物理世界交互。這一轉變要求系統能夠基于運動、聲音、振動、無線電波及熱力學等信號進行推理,并在嚴苛的功耗、時延、安全性及可靠性約束下實現本地運行。而這正是ADI對"物理智能"的解讀。
Alif正憑借一個由高能效AI原生微控制器與融合處理器構成的精密平臺,重新定義邊緣智能。平臺采用異構架構,支持實時傳感器融合、低時延推理和端側AI,為各類具有嚴苛要求的物理系統注入高階智能。
將ADI在感知、信號處理、電源、連接及應用軟件領域的優勢,與Alif前沿的數字平臺相結合,有助于加快推出更為完備的物理智能解決方案。ADI與Alif的攜手,將能幫助客戶應對更廣泛、更復雜的系統級挑戰。
高管評論
Alif的芯片已實現量產出貨,并已獲得多家頭部消費電子及工業客戶的采用。
交易詳情
根據雙方董事會已批準的協議條款,ADI將向Alif股東支付13.5億美元的前期現金對價,具體以最終協議條款為準。此外,ADI還可能會支付最高2億美元的額外或有對價。該交易預計將于2026年底前完成,具體取決于慣常的交割條件,以及修訂版《1976年哈特-斯科特-羅迪諾反壟斷改進法案》規定的適用等待期(及其任何延期期限)屆滿。
