Ceva has updated its licensable NeuPro-M design to better handle Transformers—the neural networks underpinning ChatGPT and Dall-E AI software and now finding application at the edge in computer vision. Architectural changes to Ceva-NeuPro-M improve its power efficiency and can increase its performance sevenfold on models that can take advantage of the new features. Critical among … Continued
“Ceva’s XC20 vector-DSP architecture implements a new simultaneous multithreading technique, allocating the resources of a single vector unit to two threads instruction by instruction. Vector-unit utilization increases, boosting the licensable DSP’s area efficiency. Combined with other updates, Ceva reports the first XC20-based core, the dual-thread XC22, is more efficient than the single-thread XC4500 and the … Continued
Already supplying two generations of 5G basebands for user equipment, Ceva now offers one for the radio access network (RAN). Like PentaG2 for smartphones and low-data-rate cellular devices, PentaG-RAN integrates DSP cores with configurable accelerators. In addition, through the Intrinsix business it acquired last year, Ceva helps cellular-infrastructure customers design their base-station chips.
Ceva 的 PENTAG2 可降低 5G 功耗 全新“Lite”版本面向工业系统 作者：Linley Gwennap（2022 年 3 月 28 日） ……………………………………………………………………………………………………. 对于第二代 5G 基带，Ceva 努力做减法，而不是加法。最初的 PentaG 设计已经提速到 10Gbps， 这是我们预计 5G 能达到的最高速度。因此，对于 PentaG2，公司专注于降低每比特能耗，限制耗 热量并帮助智能手机用户延长电池续航时间。新设计还适合在笔记本电脑、平板电脑、手机热点 和车载通讯系统等产品中使用，而不局限于电话。它可以缩减到“精简”配置，适合低数据速率 设备，如资产跟踪器、智能仪表和远程传感器。
For its second-generation 5G baseband, Ceva is going down, not up. The original PentaG design already scales to 10Gbps, the maximum speed we expect 5G to reach. So for PentaG2, the company focused on reducing energy per bit, limiting heat and stretching battery life for its smartphone customers. The new design is also suitable for … Continued
Ceva-NeuPro-M deep-learning accelerator (DLA) offers 16x faster inferencing than the previous generation thanks to its new architecture. The licensable core showcases Winograd-convolution and unstructured-sparsity engines, which boost performance and reduce power consumption. These accelerators also keep multiply-accumulate (MAC) units busy, increasing utilization.
低功耗蓝牙音频设计延长了电池寿命 作者：Mike Demler（2021 年 4 月 5 日） Ceva 的 Bluebud 是实现所谓的真正无线立体声 (TWS) 耳机的交钥匙解决方案。该知识产权 (IP) 解决方案支持经典蓝牙以及蓝牙SIG去年批准的低功耗蓝牙5.2音频（LE 音频）规范。由于早期的蓝牙规范仅允许配对单个发射器和接收器，无线行业采用 TWS 来描述使两个耳塞能够传输立体声音频的专有技术。LE 音频标准引入了一种基于同步信道的新方法，允许音频源向无限数量的接收器广播一个或多个流。
