Ceva has introduced that its award-winning Ceva-NeuPro-Nano Embedded AI NPUs have gained important traction within the AIoT and MCU markets, with a number of buyer wins and an enhanced improvement studio that covers the complete software program design cycle for AI and embedded functions.
The Ceva-NeuPro-Nano 32 and 64 MAC NPUs (NPN32 and NPN64, respectively), provide a novel mixture of energy, efficiency and price efficiencies wanted for semiconductor corporations and OEMs to deploy embedded AI fashions on their SoCs. The NPUs are uniquely an all-in-one answer that can be utilized for function extraction, neural community compute, DSP workloads and management code execution and thus present good efficiency for related voice, imaginative and prescient and sensing workloads. The Ceva-NeuPro-Nano NPUs are distinctive processors in addition to highlighted by their Coremark/MHz rating of 6.0.
The discharge of Ceva-NeuPro Studio as an IDE built-in answer, enabling clients to develop, optimise, deploy and consider AI functions on Ceva-NeuPro-Nano. Key options embrace:Business-standard Eclipse-based IDESupport for a number of open-source AI frameworksInference code technology and executionSimulation, emulation and debuggingAccess to Ceva’s Mannequin Zoo for fast benchmarkingAPIs to enabled clean integration of every part into semiconductor firm SDKsIntegration of Ceva-NeuPro Studio with Edge Impulse Studio, enabling clients to:Simply consider AI fashions on Ceva-NeuPro-Nano earlier than silicon availabilityDeploy and retrain fashions to be used on Ceva-NeuPro-Nano utilizing NVIDIA TAO ToolkitStreamline improvement with a unified workflowAccelerate time-to-market with prototyping and testingWinner of two trade awards:Greatest IP/ Processor of the Yr 2024 award on the EE Awards Asia event2024 IoT Edge Computing Excellence Award
Chad Lucien, the vp and common supervisor of the sensor and audio enterprise unit at Ceva, stated, “The rapid adoption of our Ceva-NeuPro-Nano Embedded AI NPUs is a testament to our team’s dedication to pushing the boundaries of embedded AI. MCU and AIoT semiconductor companies have praised the Ceva-NeuPro-Nano’s efficiency as an NPU and its ability to simultaneously handle the demands of neural network compute, feature extraction and processing complex DSP workloads all in a self-contained architecture. Our latest customer wins and enhanced Ceva-NeuPro Studio demonstrate our commitment to delivering innovative solutions that empower our customers to create intelligent, efficient, and scalable edge AI applications.”
Reside demos of the Ceva-NeuPro-Nano NPU operating embedded AI functions and Edge Impulse Studio shall be proven at Ceva’s sales space throughout CES 2025, situated within the Venetian Ballroom – Bassano 2709.
