E-Series GPU IP

Overview

E-Series GPU IP delivers fast and flexible parallel compute that scales from wearables to the cloud.

E-Series GPU IP breaks through the throughput, memory and power barriers that surrounded AI at the edge.

The capabilities of E-Series will trigger a rethink in edge system design. Artificial intelligence is pervasive but compute-intensive, and its algorithms remain mercurial. Over-investment in specialist accelerators limits hardware’s ability to adapt to the future. E-Series delivers the performance required for next-generation AI applications across mobile, automotive, desktop and consumer markets, all while retaining the flexibility and programmability synonymous with GPU acceleration.

FROM 2 TO 200 TOPS AI PERFORMANCE

E-Series represents a new era of GPU IP with the introduction of a lot of dense, deeply integrated acceleration for power-efficient AI operations – up to 4x more than Imagination D-Series GPU IP.

This transforms the classic Imagination GPU Core into a highly capable Neural Core that scales in performance up to 200 TOPS (INT8/FP8) and transforms the face of edge intelligence.

Key Features

ULTIMATE EFFICIENCY: E-Series GPUs boost graphics and AI power efficiency by 35% over the previous generation via Imagination’s new Burst Processors technology.
AI FOR EVERYONE: E-Series Neural Cores can scale from 2 – 200 TOPS (INT8) while retaining the area efficiency needed for cost-effective AI at the edge.
MADE FOR DEVS: The full performance of E-Series can be unlocked via an easy-to-use software stack with compute libraries, highly optimised graph compilation and advanced developer tooling.

Benefits

SMARTER, LEANER, MORE EFFICIENT: E-Series new Burst Processors technology works with Imagination’s graphics and AI pipelines to lower average GPU power consumption by 35% compared to D-Series. The technology reduces data movement within the GPU, which in turn lowers power consumption and boosts GPU utilisation, as it frees up memory to keep the compute units fed.
BUILT FOR PROGRAMMABILITY: Imagination’s software stack provides developers with an easy-to-use solution based on open standards for porting their code to Imagination-based hardware and optimising performance. Highly optimised OpenCL compute libraries and compilers enhance GPU efficiency, and our advanced tooling gives developers clear insights into application performance.
FLEXIBLE BY DESIGN: E-Series has the flexibility to run advanced graphics workloads, AI workloads, or both at the same time – ideal for multi-domain controllers or the complex processors inside today’s smartphones. Imagination’s hardware-based virtualisation technology supports up to sixteen virtual machines on E-Series GPUs.
