VeriSilicon Unveils Next-Gen Vitality Architecture GPU IP Series

[Nomad76]

VeriSilicon today announced the launch of its latest Vitality architecture Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) IP series, designed to deliver high-performance computing across a wide range of applications, including cloud gaming, AI PC, and both discrete and integrated graphics cards.

VeriSilicon's new generation Vitality GPU architecture delivers exceptional advancements in computational performance with scalability. It incorporates advanced features such as a configurable Tensor Core AI accelerator and a 32 MB to 64 MB Level 3 (L3) cache, offering both powerful processing power and superior energy efficiency. Additionally, the Vitality architecture supports up to 128 channels of cloud gaming per core, addressing the needs of high concurrency and high image quality cloud-based entertainment, while enabling large-scale desktop gaming and applications on Windows systems. With robust support for Microsoft DirectX 12 APIs and AI acceleration libraries, this architecture is ideally suited for a wide range of performance-intensive applications and complex computing workloads.



With over 20 years of development, VeriSilicon's GPU IP has a proven track record in diverse segments, from low-power IoT Microcontroller Units (MCUs) to high-performance processors for automotive and computing applications. To date, over 2 billion chips featuring VeriSilicon's GPU IP have been shipped globally.

"Parallel computing demand has been steadily increasing over the last decade, with a dramatic surge driven by the rise of AI computing. GPUs have become essential processors in this new era, expanding their role beyond traditional applications like gaming, "said Weijin Dai, Chief Strategy Officer, Executive Vice President and General Manager of IP Division at VeriSilicon. "The Vitality architecture GPU represents the next generation of high-performance and energy-efficient GPU. With over 20 years of GPU development experience across diverse market segments, the Vitality architecture is built to support the most advanced GPU APIs. Its scalability enables widespread deployment in fields such as automotive systems and mobile computing devices. We are thrilled to collaborate with leading customers to integrate this groundbreaking technology into their products, addressing the growing demand for GPUs and advanced computing solutions."

Since they've mainly focused on IoT/automotive, designing and selling IPs for customers in that area for about 20 years, they are more or less in shadow mode (Broadcom, Samsung, and others use some of VeriSilicon products). Now, they seem to be getting into more advanced things with this Vitality GPU architecture, but not too many tech details about it have been released.

Chi Nuh IP "fabless silicon" company offering "As a Service" development with their tools and a plethoura of patents they can use to charge import items and seem semi-legit.

The inclusion of DX12 support is interesting. I’d like to see where this goes in the future.

Without reading the article I bet they're veri much into silicon.

They bought out Vivante, which you may or may not have heard of.
A lot of SoCs from NXP used to use their GPUs.

See above, the "GPU" stuff was a US company until nine years ago.
