Deneb’s architecture modeling tool for AI SoCs

EDA startup Deneb Design has announced the availability of an architecture modeling and exploration tool for AI-enabled system-on-chip products. The tool, called Deneb SoC, includes a library of cycle-accurate and cycle-approximate architectural block models such as CPU, memory subsystem, network-on-chip, tensor and vector processing units, GPU etc. A typical use case of Deneb SoC is to simulate the compute pipeline of a neural processing unit that is executing a machine learning model, to properly size the different components. According to the company, still today SoC architecture design and IP selection are often based on simple spreadsheet analysis or engineer’s intuitions.
