Product Overview Hero

Accelerator IP for
AI Designs

An AI accelerator platform that scales
for any application

Expedera's unified compute pipeline architecture IP enables highly efficient hardware scheduling and advanced memory management to achieve unsurpassed end-to-end low-latency performance. The architecture is mathematically proven to utilize the least amount of memory for neural network (NN) execution. Our Origin™ deep learning accelerator IP enables system designers to meet a full range of low latency, power-efficient and high-performance requirements. This minimizes die area, reduces DRAM access, improves bandwidth, saves power, and maximizes performance. Since NNs generate a tremendous amount of intermediate data, minimizing the memory allows high-resolution NN processing, such as 4K/8K video, to run real-time on-chip. Expedera Origin offers the best performance in the ideal IP size, is easily integrated, readily scalable, and can be customized to your unique needs. For power-constrained applications, such as headsets and smart speakers, we offer our TimbreAI T3, an ultra-low power AI inference engine designed for audio noise reduction.

Expedera's Origin architecture allows designers to run their trained neural network unchanged, without the need for hardware-specific optimizations.

Origin enables AI hardware and software engineers to achieve greater accuracy and predictable performance. The native packet execution architecture enables a simplified software environment which reduces design complexity and simplifies integration efforts.

Origin achieves sustained performance of up to 128 TOPS with typical utilization rates of 70-90% (measured in silicon running common AI workloads such as ResNet). This best-in-class performance and utilization allows users to run AI models with less power consumption than alternative solutions. In 3rd party testing, Expedera’s architecture has been silicon-proven to produce efficiencies of 18 TOPS/W. Origin excels at image-related tasks like computer vision, image classification, and object detection. Additionally, it is capable of NLP (Natural Language Processing)-related tasks like machine translation, sentence classification, and generation. Origin offers deterministic performance, scalable on-chip execution with the smallest memory footprint and scales from edge solutions with little or no DRAM bandwidth to high-performance applications such as autonomous driving and cloud applications without the software bloat that other solutions require. Simply put, the Origin product family offers the ideal solution for engineers looking for a single DLA architecture that readily scales to a variety of application requirements while maintaining optimal processing, power, and area.

Expedera's four Origin Neural Engine IP product families can be tuned to fit the requirements of any AI application. Learn more about Expedera’s Origin E1, Origin E2, Origin E6, and Origin E8 below.
