In addition to this- I’ve received an email this morning confirming there is an ongoing relationship/communication between both Merc & Valeo.. take it how you want itHi All,
Speaking of 4-bit quantization, I found another reference to it in a different Qualcomm blog to the one @GStocks123 posted. This time Qualcomm refers to it in conjunction with Snapdragon mobile platforms and the Qualcomm Hexagon DSP, which seems to indicate that they consider it "highly beneficial to quantize values to smaller representations, down to as low as 4-bit". Why else would they mention it directly after discussing Snapdragon and Hexagon, if it didn't improve the actual performance, latency, of these two specific processors??
Naturally I don't want to get everyone too excited and will leave you to draw your own conclusions.

Can I get some clarity around how Akida is involved exactly with the X280.
Breaking down the x280
So either SiFive Intelligence extensions is the Akida IP and is embedded in all x280 processors.
Or
Laguna Hills, Calif. – April 5, 2022 – BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN, OTCQX: BRCHF, ADR: BCHPY), the world’s first commercial producer of ultra-low power neuromorphic AI chips and IP, and SiFive, Inc., the founder and leader of RISC-V computing, have combined their respective technologies to offer chip designers optimized AI/ML compute at the edge.
That implies to me that only custom designed chips will have the Akida Neuron fabric.
Not every X280 application that is AI/ML will be Akida.
Any insights?
@Diogenese
@uiux
Any other takers?
Breaking down the x280
- X280 Processor - a 64-bit applications processor plus an expanded vector unit supporting the RISC-V Vector 1.0 ratified standardvector extensions
( not Akida )
- SiFive Intelligence extensions, which add custom instructions to optimize AI/ML workloads.
X280 can run by itself, performing inference tasks at the edge, where it can also act as an apps processor and inference engine for smaller workloads. ( ref )
Are we saying that this is Akida IP?? the SiFive Intelligence extenstions??
- VCIX (Vector Coprocessor Interface eXtension)
This feature was added to the latest version of the X280 ~ June 2022 ( ref )
VCIX connects to the 32, 512-bit registers in the X280 directly and also to the scalar instruction stream, creating a high bandwidth, low latency path directly coupled to the instruction stream of the X280 scalar processor.
"X280 has many features to accelerate AI and ML, but it’s not a massive AI accelerator that is traditionally built for datacenters. Customers building these massive accelerators found they had a bunch of complex compute that needed to be done that their accelerator “really didn’t know how to do.” For example, many found that you need a full featured software stack to run the code that’s not in the kernel that sits on the accelerator. To solve this challenge, customers realized they could put the X280 core next to their large accelerator where it could provide maintenance code and operations code, run kernels that the big accelerator couldn’t do, or provide other valuable extra functions. And the X280 core allowed them to run very fast."
( does not sound like Akida IP, not like Akida will be using this VCIX interface )
So either SiFive Intelligence extensions is the Akida IP and is embedded in all x280 processors.

Just on Qualcomm & wearables with their new Snapdragon W5 SoCs.
Appears leaked they are using a co-processor.
The ML handled by a U55 NPU which can presume is the ARM Ethos U55 which I don't think uses SNN?

After its teasers SoC last week, Qualcomm is announcing two new wearable chipsets today. To succeed the Snapdragon Wear 4100+ platform, Qualcomm announces the Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 and the W5+ Gen 1. Both SoCs are built on the 4nm process and represent a drastic improvement to Qualcomm’s offering for wearables.
Qualcomm touts that its new wearable chipsets will offer up to 2X the performance using half as much power compared to the Snapdragon Wear 4100+ Platform. In typical scenarios, the W5+ can provide up to 50% longer battery life by taking up 30% less space than previous generations. Qualcomm has worked closely with Google over the past several quarters to optimize Wear OS for the new SoC.
The main difference between the Snapdragon W5 and W5+ Gen 1 is that the non-Plus model skips out on the AON Co-Processor. It intends to equip segment-specific wearables with the Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 as they won’t require the extra power-saving capabilities. This includes wearables for China, Kids, Seniors, Health, and Enterprise segments.
The W5+ Gen 1 is made up of four Cortex A53 cores and one Cortex M55 efficiency core at 250 MHz. Graphics are handled by the A702 GPU clocked at 1 GHz (significant boost from the 4100+’s 320 MHz A504 GPU) and memory has been updated to support LPDDR4 at 2133 Mhz. A new Machine Learning unit U55 has been added here as well.
The W5+’s new co-processor can handle more tasks in the background while using less power. All the wearable’s sensing is handled by the AON (always on) Co-Processor (22nm) and with the W5+ Gen 1, speech processing, audio playback, and notifications are all able to be handed off to the co-processor now. The AON chip will also enable low-power Bluetooth 5.3, Wi-Fi, GNSS, and adds support for new power states like Deep Sleep and Hibernate. LTE is also getting a low-power mode with an update modem.
Qualcomm announces it has partnered with Compel and Pegatron to create reference smartwatches with the Snapdragon W5+ on board to help partners develop products faster.
Mobvoi and Oppo will be the first OEMs to launch wearables with Qualcomm’s new SoC and the chipmaker says 25 smartwatch designs are currently in the pipeline. Oppo is expected to make an announcement sometime in August for the Oppo Watch 3.

I think that a lot of weight has been placed on this statement from SiFive vice president:
https://brainchip.com/brainchip-sifive-partner-deploy-ai-ml-at-edge/
“Employing Akida, BrainChip’s specialized, differentiated AI engine, with high-performance RISC-V processors such as the SiFive Intelligence Series is a natural choice for companies looking to seamlessly integrate an optimized processor to dedicated ML accelerators that are a must for the demanding requirements of edge AI computing,” said Chris Jones, vice president, products at SiFive. “BrainChip is a valuable addition to our ecosystem portfolio”.
So, yes, you can order one with the lot, or discard the anchovies, capsicum and SNN.

Lol.
Sure, that still implies to me that it will be a custom X280.
Not every X280 application that talks about AI/ML would be Akida.
Even if we are saying it would be "unnatural" not to have Akida...... like ordering Pizza with pineapple on it.
The metaphor doesn't quite work since in this case you need to ADD Akida.
The base does not have Akida.

SiFive Intelligence X280 64-bit RISC-V processor integrates AI extensions - CNX Software
SiFive Intelligence X280 is multi-core, Linux capable RISC-V processor adding SiFive Intelligence Extensions optimized for AI/ML edge compute
www.cnx-software.com
SiFive Intelligence Extensions for ML workloads – BF16/FP16/FP32/FP64, int8 to 64 fixed-point data types
My take.
The Intelligence Extensions are embedded in the X280 chip and can run by itself, performing inference tasks at the edge, where it can also act as an apps processor and inference engine for smaller workloads.
For Akida IP to be employed, you need a custom chip where I'm guessing the Akida Neuron fabric integrates through this AXI4 bus interconnect.

Sure, but it's available if needed - it may even become a standard feature if it can turn off and on the power hungry vector units.
NASA had to go with SiFive, of course, as ARM isn't a US company.
But you can take heart that SiFive and Brainchip ensured that their technology works together, possibly at the behest of NASA, one of our earliest EAP's.
So what you have is both the sunrise chipset designers keeping Brainchip close in their eco systems.

Just one tiny point acceleration is not Artificial Intelligence.
The industry quite bluntly lies in all its advertising when it describes a semiconductor as an Ai accelerator where the edge is concerned.
An Ai accelerator at the edge is simply compressing data to send it more efficiently to somewhere else to be processed.
SiFive X280 is as they say an accelerator full stop. The only way they can claim it to be an Intelligence Series is if they add Ai that does some processing of the sensor data before it is sent to somewhere else for action. Which is where AKIDA comes in.
Otherwise in truth it is not the Intelligence Series it is the Accelerator Series.
Now if they wanted they could add Loihi 2 to the X280 to make it intelligent but of course it is not commercially available.
Of SiFive’s published partners the only partner supplying Ai to make X280 intelligent is Brainchip.
So it is of course an add on but if you don’t add it on you don’t get intelligence you get acceleration.
It is like going into a car dealership to buy a new car and when it’s delivered there are no wheels. When you point this out the sales person says wheels are an extra. You didn’t say you wanted wheels.
Buying an Intelligence Series processor without the intelligence is pretty unintelligent.
