EPIC Microsystems has raised an oversubscribed $21 million Series A round, led by Seligman Ventures with participation from Intel Capital, AICONIC Ventures, Cambium Capital and prior backers, bringing total funding to $26 million and extending its runway to commercialize vertical power delivery for AI compute platforms. As part of the financing, Seligman Ventures managing partner and semiconductor veteran Umesh Padval has joined EPIC Microsystems’ board, signaling investor confidence in the company’s path to scaling deployment in data center infrastructure.

The company’s hybrid switched-capacitor architecture is designed to replace traditional inductor-heavy DC-DC power solutions that are running into efficiency, thermal and integration limits as AI rack densities approach one megawatt, giving hyperscalers a smaller z-height footprint, higher current density and improved thermal performance to push performance per watt and per dollar. EPIC’s silicon-proven design, drawing on the founding team’s experience in bringing switched-capacitor fast-charging solutions to hundreds of millions of mobile devices, targets AI accelerators and GPUs in next-generation racks, positioning the firm at a critical bottleneck where power delivery is emerging as strategic as advances in AI compute silicon, according to company executives and early investors.
