Instead of tweaking existing designs, VSORA built an AI chip from scratch to fix the real bottleneck: moving data fast enough to keep the math circuits busy.
There’s a version of the AI hardware story that everyone in the chip industry has heard a hundred times. A startup raises money on a clever chip design, promises to topple… Read More
Source: Jonathon Evans and Polychronis Xekalakis, “NVIDIA Vera CPU,” Hot Chips 2026. Performance figures are NVIDIA claims, and several results were based on preproduction or unofficial testing.
NVIDIA’s Vera CPU is a server processor designed specifically for agentic AI, where language models repeatedly observe, reason,… Read More
The Cadence Tensilica DNA100 DSP IP core is not a one-size-fits-all device. But it’s highly modular in order to support AI processing at the edge, delivering from 0.5 TMAC for on-device IoT up to 10s or 100 TMACs to support autonomous vehicle (ADAS). If you remember the first talks about IoT and Cloud, a couple of years ago, the IoT … Read More
