Heterogeneous NPU Data Movement Tax: Intel's Own Slides Tell the Story

At Quadric, we have long argued that heterogeneous NPU designs — those that stitch together multiple specialized fixed-function engines — carry an unavoidable hidden cost: data has to move. A lot. And data movement burns power, adds latency, and creates silicon-area overhead that scales with every new generation of AI models. Now, Intel has made that case for us.

The Upcoming NPU Shakeout

The IP industry is no stranger to boom and bust cycles, and it looks to be at the crest of another wave.
