ADTechnology, Korea’s largest semiconductor design house, has entered a development partnership with Ubitium, a German fabless semiconductor innovator, to bring its revolutionary UB410 microprocessor to silicon.
The UB410 is a next-generation general-purpose microprocessor that replaces traditional CPUs, GPUs, DSPs, and FPGAs with a single, unified compute fabric. Developed by Ubitium, the UB410 eliminates the need for multiple processor types and fragmented tool-chains – delivering a universal platform for AI, signal processing, and general-purpose workloads. The result: reduced system complexity, lower cost, and seamless support for advanced on-device intelligence.
Under this agreement, ADTechnology will serve as a key implementation partner, responsible for backend design and coordinating the manufacturing process as a Design Solution Partner (DSP) using Samsung Foundry’s FinFET technologies. Prototype tape-out is planned for the second half of 2025, with mass production targeted for end of 2026, early 2027.
“We founded Ubitium to rethink the fundamentals of compute,” said Hyun-Shin Cho, CEO of Ubitium. “The UB410 is not just another processor – it’s a new category. By unifying traditionally separate compute domains like CPU, GPU, DSP, and FPGA into a single, programmable architecture, we eliminate complexity at the hardware and software level. This simplifies product design, accelerates time to market, and makes advanced on-device AI accessible across industries. Our collaboration with ADTechnology brings us one step closer to making this vision a reality in silicon.”
“We are excited to support Ubitium as they bring this disruptive processor architecture to life,” said Jun-Gyu Park, CEO of ADTechnology. “As Korea’s largest design house, we bring deep expertise in advanced SoC implementation and will ensure a smooth transition from RTL to manufacturing.”
“We are pleased to see innovators like Ubitium leveraging Samsung Foundry’s competitive mature FinFET technology through trusted partners like ADTechnology,” said Tae-Joong Song, Vice President and Head of Foundry Technology Planning Team at Samsung Electronics. “We look forward to supporting the development of next-generation processors for on-device intelligence.”
As computing increasingly moves to the edge, the UB410 provides the performance, flexibility, and simplicity needed to power the next wave of intelligent devices – from robotics and autonomous systems to industrial automation, audio processing, and smart consumer products.
