technology
Implementation of artificial intelligence at the ‘edge’ (edge AI) is the use of AI techniques in products and devices at the edge of our connectivity networks, or even stand alone.
These applications, which often have severe power constraints because of their physical location, require vast amounts of local memory or a low-latency, high bandwidth connection to the cloud
The problem
with flash
Traditional architectures with non-volatile memory will use external Flash chips, but just like microcontrollers, they would significantly benefit from being able to integrate that memory on the same device as the processor
Fully integrated
memory
The ability to integrate the memory, which will have read access speed similar to the SRAM memory normally used, allows for new compute architectures with much higher memory bandwidth.
New AI architectures using Intrinsic RRAM therefore have the opportunity to be much higher performance and much lower power than those achievable with external non-volatile memory and internal SRAM
We get rid of the bottleneck
Intrinsic’s technology meets a pressing need. We can put efficient non-volatile memory directly on advanced processor chips, revolutionising next-generation microcontrollers and edge processors
Direct integration
Our technology exploits silicon dioxide – one of the most microelectronics-friendly materials there is. We use industry-standard fabrication and simple processes, and CMOS-compatibility is one of our core values and strengths
Low power consumption
Our silicon oxide devices consume orders of magnitude less power than Flash while offering superior performance
Low cost
Simple materials, simple design and CMOS compatibility make our technology low cost, yet high performance
Secure
The more computing power we can integrate into microcontrollers and edge processors, the less they need to communicate with the Cloud. That means less danger of data being intercepted
5X smaller
Our devices can be integrated with more advanced processors than Flash can, and each memory element is smaller than corresponding SRAM or DRAM cells
