Across the 14 most recent consumer electronics funding entries in Santa Clara, the largest disclosed round is Nuvia’s $240M (2020-09-24), which dwarfs every other disclosed amount on the list; the next-highest disclosed rounds are Applied Materials at $100M (2022-10-19) and Malwarebytes at $100M (2022-09-21), followed by Forward Networks’ $50M (2023-01-24) and Clumio’s $75M (2024-02-21). Most of the disclosed rounds cluster well below $50M, with several in the $20M–$28M range (e.g., UltraSense Systems $20M on 2020-02-18; DSP Concepts $28M on 2022-01-26; xMEMS $21M on 2025-10-28).
Dates span 2020-02-18 (UltraSense Systems) through 2025-10-28 (xMEMS), and the most recent two-thirds of the timeline are dominated by “Series Unknown” or undisclosed amounts: 2 entries are marked “Series Unknown” (Splitvolt 2025-02-21; Eliyan 2024-08-13) and 3 entries are “undisclosed” (Splitvolt 2025-02-21; Anello Photonics 2024-11-18; Eliyan 2024-08-13), limiting stage-size comparability in the latest window. Stage disclosures also concentrate in multiple D rounds (Forward Networks $50M on 2023-01-24; Clumio $75M on 2024-02-21; xMEMS $21M on 2025-10-28).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round in this Santa Clara consumer electronics list, and how does it compare to the rest of the disclosed amounts?
Nuvia’s $240M (2020-09-24) is the only disclosed round on this page above $100M and it dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts of $100M each for Applied Materials (2022-10-19) and Malwarebytes (2022-09-21). Most other disclosed rounds sit at $75M or below (e.g., Clumio $75M on 2024-02-21; Forward Networks $50M on 2023-01-24).
Do the most recent rounds cluster into a narrow time window, or are they evenly distributed across years?
The list spans 2020-02-18 through 2025-10-28, but the visible counts are not evenly spaced: multiple entries appear in 2022 (Applied Materials $100M on 2022-10-19; Malwarebytes $100M on 2022-09-21; DSP Concepts $28M on 2022-01-26) and 2024–2025 includes several additional updates (xMEMS $21M on 2025-10-28; AirVine Scientific $6M on 2024-03-25; Clumio $75M on 2024-02-21).
Which companies are disclosed as the smallest rounds, and what does that suggest about the lower end of this segment?
The smallest disclosed amount is AirVine Scientific’s $6M (2024-03-25). Other low-end disclosed rounds cluster above that floor, such as KeraCel’s $14M (2021-01-27) and UltraSense Systems’ $20M (2020-02-18), indicating limited disclosed activity in the single-digit range beyond $6M.
How much of the list lacks disclosed dollar amounts or stage clarity, especially in the latest entries?
Dollar amounts are undisclosed in 3 rows: Splitvolt (2025-02-21), Anello Photonics (2024-11-18), and Eliyan (2024-08-13). Stage labeling is also unclear in 2 rows marked “Series Unknown” (Splitvolt 2025-02-21; Eliyan 2024-08-13), constraining comparisons in the most recent part of the timeline (2024–2025).
Is there a stage pattern (e.g., Series D) that repeats across multiple companies in Santa Clara?
Yes. Series D appears in three disclosed rounds on this page: Forward Networks $50M (2023-01-24), Clumio $75M (2024-02-21), and xMEMS $21M (2025-10-28). Those are in the middle-to-upper portion of the disclosed range, sitting above AirVine Scientific’s $6M and KeraCel’s $14M but below the $100M disclosed rounds at Applied Materials and Malwarebytes.
