Company profile
Pulsiv
UK developer of power-conversion architectures, semiconductor-based control technology and USB-C power modules.
Company overview
Pulsiv develops power-conversion technology for AC–DC supplies and solar-energy applications. Its OSMIUM architecture applies control intelligence to an active valley-fill approach and can be used with established DC–DC converter topologies. The company also presents HORIZON technology for solar installations and supplies reference designs and assembled USB-C power modules. Its work combines power-electronics architecture, semiconductor expertise and product engineering rather than being limited to a single discrete device. Pulsiv originated as a University of Plymouth spin-out in 2013, based on Dr Zaki Ahmed's research. Published company material identifies operations in Cambridge and Plymouth. Its website includes product-support routes and announcements from 2026, including a manufacturing partnership and a chief executive appointment, providing evidence of continuing operation.
