Wafer equipped with ASIC implemented in the world’s most advanced process rolls out on August 25 and is scheduled to be available in early September after assembly testing.

This 5nm process will be used to check the core performance and power consumption since SRAM cells were not yet prepared at the time of tape-out in March.

In the first quarter of 2020, we will tape out the second version with the same functions as the product version with SRAM and other functional blocks.

TeraPixel has R & D technology for massively parallel processors with many cores, aiming for the world’s highest level of computing performance versus power consumption.

Targeting to commercialize AI product in 2021.
