Quadric licenses the Chimera general-purpose neural processing unit, a processor core that executes both neural network graphs and conventional C++ DSP code without a separate host. Semiconductor companies integrate the IP into system-on-chips for automotive cameras, smartphones, drones and industrial equipment. Quadric provides the Chimera Graph Compiler and an SDK that imports ONNX models, and it targets designs where machine learning workloads change after the chip is taped out.
Focus: npu ip, general purpose npu.
