Gen4 architecture delivers 300% faster performance for AI/ML applications while drawing 50% less power and consuming 65% less die area compared to the previous Speedcore eFPGA generation.

The new Speedcore eFPGA IP with Gen4 architecture dramatically improves upon Achronix's original and highly successful Speedcore offering. Optimized for high-performance AI/ML and hardware-acceleration applications, Speedcore IP with Gen4 architecture delivers 60% faster performance (300% faster for AI/ML applications) while drawing 50% less power and consuming 65% less die area compared to the previous Speedcore eFPGA generation.

AI/ML applications place heavy processing demands on systems, requiring billions or trillions of operations per second. Meanwhile, cloud and enterprise data-center computing resources and communications infrastructure can no longer keep pace with explosive, exponential growth in data bandwidth requirements, rapidly changing security protocols, or emerging networking standards. Today's multi-core CPUs and SoCs cannot meet these needs unaided. Programmable hardware accelerators are now required to increase system performance by offloading these computations from overburdened server CPUs. Achronix specifically architected the Gen4 architecture to address the needs of these applications.
