What is Quadric?
Quadric offers an advanced processor architecture specifically engineered for on-device artificial intelligence tasks. Its core product, the Chimera GPNPU (General-Purpose Neural Processing Unit), combines high machine learning inference performance with the capability to execute complex C++ code within a single processor. This unified approach eliminates the need for developers to partition code across multiple processor types, simplifying System-on-Chip (SoC) hardware design and accelerating the porting of new ML models.
The Chimera GPNPU architecture is designed for scalability, offering performance ranging from 1 to 864 TOPs (Tera Operations Per Second). It supports a wide array of machine learning networks, encompassing classical backbones, modern vision transformers, and large language models (LLMs). Quadric also provides safety-enhanced versions tailored for automotive applications and supports designers with the Chimera SDK and Quadric DevStudio for development and visualization.
