Alphawave Semi Bridges from Theory to Reality in Chiplet-Based AI
GenAI, the most talked-about manifestation of AI these days, imposes two tough constraints on a hardware platform. First, it demands massive memory to serve large language model with billions of parameters. Feasible in principle for a processor plus big DRAM off-chip and perhaps for some inference applications but too slow … Read More
Design Stage Verification Gives a Boost for IP Designers
The concept of shift left is getting to be quite well-known. The strategy involves integrating various checks typically performed later in the design process into earlier stages. The main benefit is to catch and correct defects or errors at an earlier stage when it’s easier and faster to address. For complex SoC design, … Read More
