Licensable neural-network processor IP scaling from ultra-low-power wearables to data-center and automotive cores.
VeriSilicon licenses the Vivante NPU series, a programmable neural-network acceleration engine for consumer, automotive, industrial, and IoT chips. Members range from the VIP9000Pico for wearables to the 80-TOPS VIP9400 for data centers, supporting common machine-learning frameworks and vision APIs.
The portfolio also includes the open-source Coral NPU core developed with Google for commercial silicon integration. Designers pair the NPU with image-signal IP for camera-aware AI workloads at the endpoint and edge.
