Rebellion-Taiwan Pegatron Begins Development of AI Chip 'Ribel' Module Product

Rebellion Design Expertise and Pegatron Manufacturing Know-How
Praised as an Unprecedented Collaboration in the AI Semiconductor Market

AI semiconductor fabless startup Rebellion announced on the 8th that it has signed a strategic partnership with Pegatron, a Taiwanese DMS (Design and Manufacturing Service) company specializing in electronics and computing.

Through this collaboration, they will develop a dedicated module system for Rebellion's next-generation AI semiconductor 'REBEL' to maximize its performance. By producing dedicated modules such as PICe cards (expansion cards that transmit data at high speed), they aim to provide solutions optimized for AI infrastructure in electrical, mechanical, and thermal aspects, targeting timely product launches and establishing mass production systems based on REBEL.

Pegatron is a global company with annual sales of approximately $40 billion and over 100,000 employees, focusing on the production of AI servers and modules that operate large-scale language models. Its major clients include Apple, Intel, and AMD.

Rebellion has been recognized in the industry for its expertise in designing large chips based on chiplet technology equipped with HBM3E (5th generation). Chiplet technology combines multiple semiconductor chips into a single package, which is essential for high-performance AI semiconductor design.

Collaboration between AI semiconductor startups and global DMS companies is unusual. As AI models grow larger, the demand for systems with performance and energy efficiency increases, leading to active cooperation among technologically capable companies. This partnership is a response to such market changes.

The two companies plan to strengthen product stability and mass production capabilities through Rebellion's design expertise and Pegatron's manufacturing know-how. Rebellion is expected to take a step forward in building a global AI infrastructure ecosystem and securing the value chain.

James Xue, Pegatron's Chief Technology Officer (CTO), said, "Pegatron has accumulated extensive experience in hardware production and design. Through this collaboration, we are ready to meet the growing demand in the rapidly expanding AI accelerator market."

Jinwook Oh, Rebellion's CTO, said, "With this partnership, Rebellion will be able to supply high-quality AI infrastructure solutions to the global market in a timely manner."
