History

Adesto Technologies was founded by Narbeh Derhacobian, Shane Hollmer, and Ishai Naveh in 2006.[7][8] Derhacobian formerly served in senior technical and managerial roles at AMD, Virage Logic, and Cswitch Corporations.[1] The company developed a non-volatile memory based on the movement of copper ions in a programmable metallization cell technology licensed from Axon Technologies Corp., a spinoff of Arizona State University.[9][10]

In October 2010, Adesto acquired intellectual property and patents related to Conductive Bridging Random Access Memory (CBRAM) technology from Qimonda AG, and their first CBRAM product began production in 2011.[11]

In 2015, the company held an initial public offering under the symbol IOTS, which entered the market at $5 per share. Underwriters included Needham & Company, Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., and Roth Capital Partners.[12][13] The entire offering was valued at $28.75 million.[13]

Between May and September 2018, Adesto completed two acquisitions of S3 Semiconductors and Echelon Corporation. In May, the company acquired S3 Semiconductors, a provider of analog and mixed-signal ASICs and Intellectual Property (IP) cores.[2] In June, the company announced its intention to buy Echelon Corporation, a home and industrial automation company, for $45 million.[13] The acquisition was completed three months later.[14] The company's offerings were expanded to include ASICs and IP from S3 Semiconductors and embedded systems from Echelon Corporation, in addition to its original non-volatile memory (NVM) products.Шаблон:Citation needed
