Using intellectual property from US firm Tenstorrent, Korean company BOS Semiconductors created the first RISC-V AI accelerator chiplet named Eagle-N chiplet in the industry.
The two companies collaborated to create the Eagle-N chiplet, which has a Tenstorrent Tensix NPU core and is designed for automotive applications such In-Vehicle Infotainment (IVI) domain computing systems and Automotive Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).
The Tensix Core has a Network-on-Chip (NoC) to transfer data between cores and chips, five “baby RISC-V” processors to assist in guiding the NoC, a SIMD unit for vector operations, an array math unit for tensor calculations, and up to 1.5MB of SRAM.
This offers PCIe gen5 and UCIe high-speed interfaces, as well as up to 250TOPS NPU performance, to enable the development of an add-on NPU and AI subsystem for autonomous driving and immersive in-cabin experiences.
Eagle-N can be connected to any ADAS or IVI processor on the market, allowing OEMs and Tier-1s to easily integrate Eagle-N on top of their current ADAS or IVI domain computing system to improve its AI performance.
Apart from Eagle-N, BOS is also working on Eagle-A, a one-chip ADAS SoC that can be used in tandem with Eagle-N. The ADAS chiplet SoC family Eagle-N and Eagle-A supports different ADAS and autonomous driving functions.
Key Comments
“It is very exciting to introduce our first automotive SoC product to the market.” said Jaehong Park, CEO and founder of BOS Semiconductors. “Eagle-N is the first series of our Eagle ADAS Chiplet SoC family. Along with Tenstorrent, we will provide the most cost-effective, high-performance and low-power AI SoC in the automotive industry.”
“BOS has a great team and we have been very pleased with the collaboration so far – their vision for developing SoCs based on our technology is strong and comes at such a key moment for the automotive industry,” said David Bennett, CCO of Tenstorrent. “Tenstorrent is really excited to have Eagle-N as a part of our chiplet ecosystem.”
