Microchip says Mythic selects memBrain technology for analog processing units

Mythic has chosen memBrain neuromorphic hardware intellectual property from Microchip (MCHP) Technology’s Silicon Storage Technology subsidiary for its next-generation edge to enterprise Analog Processing Units. Mythic will utilize SST’s SuperFlash embedded non-volatile memory bitcells to deliver high levels of analog compute-in-memory performance per watt. The partnership enables Mythic to achieve 120 TOPS/watt inference processing for power-efficient AI acceleration at the edge and in the data center: Mythic’s APUs are targeted to be up to 100 times more energy-efficient than conventional digital Graphics Processing Units.
