AI SoC Case Study: Emerging Neural Networks Drive IP Innovation

September 1, 2020 @ 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM

ron lowman
The demand for neural network processing is requiring SoC hardware innovation across all market segments. These demands bring a new set of IP requirements unique to different segments, including new processors, higher bandwidth memories, high speed interconnect, and optimized architectural configurations. Constantly evolving next-generation neural networks place unique additional demands over and above the standard PPA needs of traditional chipset hardware. This presentation will describe how leading AI SoC customers are supporting emerging requirements for fast-changing neural networks. Attendees will learn about successful implementations of how IP, IP tools, and design services can enable more competitive, higher performance SoC designs while minimizing time-to-market.
