Packing Neural Networks Into End-User Client Devices


Most of today’s neural networks can only run on high-performance servers. There’s a big push to change this and simplify network processing to the point where the algorithms can run on end-user client devices. One approach is to eliminate complexity by replacing floating-point representation with fixed-point representation. We take a different approach, and recommend a mix of the two, so as... » read more

Tiling Is Critical For eFPGA Users: ArrayLinx Delivers


FPGA chips come in multiple sizes — modular blocks of programmable logic, DSP MACs and RAM are intermixed in different sizes and ratios then stitched together with top-level interconnect, clocking, etc and surrounded by a ring of I/Os like GPIO, SerDes, USB, etc. There is extensive engineering and top-level physical design for each distinct FPGA array and chip. eFPGA is different: Custome... » read more

The Ideal Solution For AI Applications — Speedcore eFPGAs


AI requires a careful balance of datapath performance, memory latency, and throughput that requires an approach based on pulling as much of the functionality as possible into an ASIC or SoC. But that single-chip device needs plasticity to be able to handle the changes in structure that are inevitable in machine-learning projects. Adding eFPGA technology provides the mixture of flexibility and s... » read more

Tokenization Beyond Payments


Tokenization is a process by which sensitive data is replaced with unique identification credentials that retain all essential information about the data without exposing said sensitive data to attacks. While traditional payment methods pass critical identification information through several points, tokenization minimizes the amount of data a business needs to keep on hand. Becoming popular wi... » read more

The Week in Review: IoT


Regulation The Consumer Product Safety Commission is accepting public comments on “potential safety issues and hazards associated with Internet-connected consumer products.” The agency is concerned about “unexpected operating conditions” with Internet of Things devices, along with hacking that could start fires through a stovetop or grill, and the potential compromising of home safety ... » read more
