BOSTON, MA, UNITED STATES, December 19, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Agnisys, Inc., the industry leader in Chip Design Automation Solutions, proudly announces that Etched, a cutting-edge player in AI-specific hardware, has chosen Agnisys and its flagship solution, IDesignSpec™ and associated IP, to enhance the development of its transformative AI Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs).— Joon Kim, Director of TPM at Etched
Etched is building the first ASIC for transformer models, which power every major generative AI application today. By trading flexibility for performance, they can deliver unmatched performance for AI applications.
“With Agnisys’ IDesignSpec, we have a powerful tool that automates our specification-driven workflow, allowing us to work more efficiently and eliminate risks associated with manual processes,” said Joon Kim, Director of TPM at Etched. “ This partnership enables us to fully concentrate on accelerating the next generation of transformer-based AI applications. We evaluated the option of using free/open-source and other commercial solutions but chose Agnisys for its comprehensive functionality and world-class 24/7 365-day support, which is paramount when rapid go-to-market is the aim.
“Etched’s vision to reshape AI hardware aligns perfectly with Agnisys’ strengths in automation,” said Anupam Bakshi, CEO of Agnisys. “Our IDesignSpec solution is an ideal fit for their complex design needs, providing automation that enables accuracy and productivity while allowing Etched team to remain focused on advancing transformer-specific chip architecture.”
IDesignSpec is a silicon-proven solution for automatically generating and interconnecting highly configurable and customizable intellectual property (IP) blocks from specifications. It generates customizable RTL, UVM RAL models1, C headers, and documentation from industry-standard specifications written in SystemRDL2 or IP-XACT3, or in accepted and easy-to-use formats such as Word and Excel. The generated RTL files include the register bus IP for popular protocols, including AMBA®, APB, AHB, AXI, Tilelink, and CXL. IDesignSpec allows Etched teams to tackle complex design challenges seamlessly and adjust quickly to specification changes.
