Markets
Where custom silicon pays for itself.
Custom chips stand out where volumes are high, power is scarce or a product must run for years. These are the main markets.
Edge AI and vision
Cameras, sensors and gateways that run inference next to the data, often from a battery or a small power supply.
Full-custom AI chips- Inference within a tight power budget
- Low latency without a network round trip
- A cost that fits a consumer bill of materials
Smart devices
Products that listen, watch or sense all the time, and must keep doing it on one charge.
Custom AI silicon- Always-on operation at very low power
- Small packages
- High volumes
Industrial automation
Machines and controllers that run for years, in heat, dust and electrical noise.
Production and supply- Long product life and long supply
- Predictable timing
- Wide temperature ranges
Networking and infrastructure
Accelerators that take repetitive work away from general-purpose processors in servers and network equipment.
ASIC design- Throughput per watt
- Standard host interfaces
- Reliable supply at volume
