Overview
TetraMem Inc, a US-based company founded in Silicon Valley in 2018, is poised to deliver the industry’s most disruptive inmemory computing (IMC) technology for efficient AI applications. TetraMem is the world’s only company to produce a high bit-density multi-level RRAM (aka computing memristor) based accelerator in commercial foundries. The technology was featured in the March 30, 2023 edition of Nature. Our team brings together complementary skill sets and technological know-how ranging from proprietary computing memory devices to novel computing architectures.
Challenges
TetraMem faced several critical challenges in developing their novel AI accelerator SoC:
Global Team Collaboration: Having a global team spread across continents requires a seamless, unified mixed-signal SoC design environment for efficient collaboration.
Resource Needs: CAD setup/flows and on-demand scalable and elastic IT resources are needed.
Complex Design Integration: The AI accelerator’s complex design requires smooth integration and verification of analog in-memory computing and the digital RISC-V processor, with critical time-to-market targets.
