Arteris IP Licensed by Axelera AI to Accelerate Computer Vision at the Edge
April 26 2023 - 8:45AM
Arteris, Inc. (Nasdaq: AIP), a leading provider of system IP which
accelerates system-on-chip (SoC) creation, today announced that
Axelera AI, a provider of the world’s most powerful and advanced
solutions for AI at the edge, has licensed Arteris FlexWay. The
Arteris IP will be used for SoC connectivity in the Metis AI
platform, a hardware and software platform for computer vision AI
inference at the edge. This technology delivers advanced
acceleration performance and usability at a fraction of the cost
and power consumption of solutions available today.
The Metis AI processing unit (AIPU), as part of the Metris AI
Platform, is equipped with four homogeneous AI cores built for
complete neural network inference acceleration. Each AI core is
self-sufficient and can execute all layers of a standard neural
network without external interactions. The four cores are
integrated into an SoC and comprised of a RISC-V controller, PCIe
interface, LPDDR4X controller, and a security complex connected via
a high-speed network-on-chip (NoC). The unit can collaborate on a
workload to boost throughput or operate on the same neural network
in parallel to reduce latency or process different neural networks
required by the application concurrently.
“Arteris is the proven industry standard for system IP with
responsive support, and deploying their technology guaranteed we
met our performance requirements and aggressive timelines,” said
Giuseppe Garcea, director of silicon and co-founder at Axelera AI.
“Arteris FlexWay interconnect IP allowed us to close timing
smoothly on a complex, multicore machine learning architecture. We
look forward to working together on the next project.”
Arteris FlexWay interconnect IP uses area-optimized interconnect
components to address a smaller class of SoC. The architecture has
been designed to be 100 percent compatible with Arm AMBA AXI and
AHB standards. It provides a scalable solution to ultra-low power
consumption and the automation of interconnect SoC
connectivity.
“We are honored to be working with Axelera AI on the edge AI
inferencing in computer vision applications,” said K. Charles
Janac, president and CEO of Arteris. “This further supports the
leading role that Arteris plays in accelerating AI innovation
across a broad list of end applications.”
