Key facts

Neuromorphic edge AI

BrainChip describes Akida as a neuromorphic processor platform for event-based, low-power AI inference and on-device learning at the edge (Akida neuromorphic processor)

Commercial hardware

BrainChip announced commercial availability and production shipments of its AKD1500 neuromorphic processor, including packaged silicon and bare-die options (AKD1500 availability)

Akida page prints 128 nodes and 128 MACs

BrainChip's Akida page prints a scalable fabric of 1 to 128 nodes, 128 MACs per neural node, and 50 to 130K embedded local SRAM per node. The stored edge-AI sentence is not this fabric cell (Akida).

Akida page prints 4-bit and uW to mW

The same page prints Akida 1 support for 4-bit, 2-bit, and 1-bit weights and activations, Akida 2 support for 8-bit, 4-bit, and 1-bit weights and activations, and Akida Pico 8-bit weights with active power from uW to mW. Those cells are not the stored AKD1500 sentence (Akida).
