IISc researchers develop an analog chipset named ARYABHAT-1
Tags: Science and Technology
Researchers at IISc Bengaluru have recently developed a prototype of an analog chipset named "Aryabhata-1".
Important facts
The team has created a design framework for developing the next generation of analog computing chipsets.
These chipsets can work fast. It will use less power than the digital processors used in various electronic gadgets.
It has been designed by Prateek Kumar, a PhD student at IISc.
Aryabhata-1
Aryabhata-1 stands for "Analog Reconfigurable Technology and Bias-scalable Hardware for AI Tasks".
These chipsets could be beneficial for applications based on artificial intelligence (AI) such as object or speech recognition apps, including Alexa.
It is able to be configured with multiple machine learning architectures such that its ability to perform robustly over different temperature ranges enables it to work with digital CPUs.
