May 1 (Reuters) - ON Semiconductor's (ON.O) shares jumped 7% on Monday after the chipmaker's quarterly guidance beat Wall Street's expectations, spurring other chip stocks with heavyweight Nvidia (NVDA.O) hitting its highest level in over a year. The Philadelphia Semiconductor index (.SOX) climbed 0.7%, outperforming the Nasdaq's (.IXIC) 0.1% rise. Nvidia, the world's most valuable chipmaker, climbed 3.5% to its highest since March 2022. Lattice Semiconductor (LSCC.O) rose 1.8% ahead of its quarterly report expected after the bell. The Philadelphia chip index has rebounded nearly 40% from its closing low in October 2022, but is down 25% from its high in 2021.

OAKLAND, California, April 19 (Reuters) - Silicon Valley 5G chip startup EdgeQ Inc said on Wednesday it raised $75 million to help fund a ramp up in production as the company starts selling its technology to customers, including telecom operators. EdgeQ makes semiconductors that power base stations for 5G telecom towers and for 5G access points that can be installed inside places like factories to run robots and autonomous vehicles wirelessly, said Vinay Ravuri, CEO and co-founder of EdgeQ. The fundraising shows that companies viewed as promising by investors are able to secure financing even though funding has dried up for many startups following the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and the ensuing banking sector turmoil in March. EdgeQ has a valuation of "hundreds of millions of dollars", said Ravuri, adding it was "definitely less than" $1 billion. The recent advent of a new open standard chip architecture called RISC-V has made it possible to design its new 5G chip more cost effectively, he said.
