Google has purchased component company Agnilux, according to reports from the blogosphere last night. There’s not a lot of information surfacing, in terms of the deal or in terms of what exactly the small start-up manufacturers.

Earlier reports about Agnilux suggested that the company has been building some kind of server. As PE Hub points out, “The name Agnilux is derived from the Sanskrit word for fire (gni) and the Latin word for light (lux),” so there’s that.

Agnilux is interesting for a number of reasons, not the least of which is the fact that it was founded by the same folks behind P.A. Semi, the chip manufacturer acquired by Apple in 2008. That purchase that helped Apple build its own iPad A4 processor in-house.
