Scaling LLMs with FPGA acceleration for generative AI

Scaling LLMs with FPGA acceleration for generative AI
by Don Dingee on 09-13-2023 at 6:00 am

Crucial to FPGA acceleration of generative AI is the 2D NoC in the Achronix Speedster 7t

Large language model (LLM) processing dominates many AI discussions today. The broad, rapid adoption of any application often brings an urgent need for scalability. GPU devotees are discovering that where one GPU may execute an LLM well, interconnecting many GPUs often doesn’t scale as hoped since latency starts piling up with… Read More


400 GbE SmartNIC IP sets up FPGA-based traffic management

400 GbE SmartNIC IP sets up FPGA-based traffic management
by Don Dingee on 07-13-2023 at 10:00 am

Achronix ANIC

Sustaining wire-speed 400 GbE transfers is only a first step in managing enterprise traffic. Adding rules-based filtering to sift packets in real time can stress most networking hardware to a breaking point, slowing down an entire network. Architects are trying to spread these loads, distributing intelligent traffic management… Read More

eFPGA Enabled Chiplets!
by Daniel Nenni on 05-18-2023 at 10:00 am

Achronix eFPGA IP

With our continuing chiplet coverage I found this of great interest. I have always felt that eFPGAs and chiplets are a natural fit for the next generation of chip design and this is an excellent example. As we design with chiplets one of the challenges is verification/validation in regards to performance and interoperability. … Read More
