The Ryzen AI NPU is from Xilinx but it's not an FPGA BTW.
- heavyset_go 10mo agoI thought the XDNA line was related to Xilinx's Versal (or Alveo, I forget) lines that use FPGA fabric? Or maybe I'm misinterpreting press releases, as evidently Notebookcheck.net lied to me years ago :( [1] https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-details-4-nm-Zen-4-Ryzen-7040-Phoenix-HS-APUs-with-integrated-Xilinx-AI-smarts-alongside-refreshed-Zen-3-and-Zen3-offerings.679093.0.html https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-details-4-nm-Zen-4-Ryzen-7...
- wtallis 10mo agoIt's an IP block that Xilinx can provide for use on their FPGAs, but as implemented on the Ryzen parts it's synthesized into a hard IP block, not an FPGA block plus bitstream.
