Higher‑Throughput NPU IP Core

Scaled for heavier inference and higher throughput

Overview

Scaled for heavier inference and higher throughput  

Architecture Highlights

  • 64-bit RISC-V AI Accelerator: 64‑bit RISC‑V CPU + RVV 1.0 Vector + programmable Tensor unit
  • Sustained DRAM bandwidth: Gazillion™ memory streaming for sustained DRAM bandwidth
  • Simple Linux Programming: Linux‑ready bring‑up; unified programming model with C1

Software Path

Single RISC‑V ISA from C1 => C8 =>Cluster => Hardware

Benefits

Boost AI throughput via a unified fabric that saturates bandwidth for maximum compute density

  • Same code, more performance: Move from edge to rack under one architecture
  • Transformer‑ready: Gazillion™ helps absorb KV‑cache bandwidth so utilization stays high

Applications

  • Vision at scale: Efficient, low-latency AI inference, enabling massive deployment of vision processing
  • Recommendation systems: Enables quick, personalized user recommendations by accelerating core ML algorithms
  • LLM/transformer inference nodes: Dedicated acceleration of matrix multiplication for high-throughput, low-latency LLM/Transformer inference
