About Nanopower
Nanopower was founded based on the invention of the low-power nPZero technology in 2017. In 2019, it started the development of a dedicated IC to create a scalable solution that would have a real impact. Its first prototype and system were taped out in 2020 and 2021, proving both functionality and low power capabilities. The first samples of the nPZero IC ship to customers in 2025.

Nanopower Semiconductor AS is a limited liability company incorporated in Norway, with operations and offices in Kristiansand, Norway, and Porto, Portugal.
