Chiplets Gain Rapid Adoption: Why Big Chips Are Getting Small
Leading chip vendors such as AMD and Intel have adopted chiplet technology for several products. This technology can reduce cost for large 7nm designs by as much as 25%, according to our analysis; the savings are even greater at 5nm and beyond. We expect chiplets will be widely used for data-center processors and networking chips in these advanced nodes.

Expedera Redefines AI Acceleration for the Edge
Expedera is a small company with big ideas. Rather than optimizing the usual AI techniques, the company rethought neural-network acceleration from the ground up, creating a unique approach that greatly improves performance while maintaining consistent power and die area. This design is well suited to many consumer and automotive applications, enabling customers to increase the intelligence of their devices and add new capabilities to benefit their end users.

Growing AI Diversity and Complexity Demands Flexible Data-Center Accelerators
AI applications are becoming more diverse, even as models for specific applications rapidly advance. CPUs and GPUs offer the flexibility to handle new models, but they deliver poor throughput or efficiency for real-time inferencing. Purpose-built deep-learning accelerators excel for CNNs but often fare poorly on other model types. SimpleMachines developed a unique “composable computing” architecture that provides both programmability and efficiency.

Mach-NX: The Root of Trusted Systems
Robust system security requires a layered approach, and the root of trust must begin with a secure boot process. Building on its leadership position, Lattice advanced its secure-control platform by introducing the next-generation Mach-NX family. These new devices keep platform security one step ahead of emerging threats while easing customer designs.

Building Better AI Chips
As progressing to 7nm and beyond becomes ever more complex and expensive, GlobalFoundries is taking a different approach to improving performance by enhancing its 12nm node with lower operating voltages and new IP blocks. The changes are particularly effective for AI (neural-network) accelerators. The new 12LP+ technology builds on the success that the foundry’s customers have already achieved in AI acceleration.
