AI-ready architecture doubles power with FeFETs

Posted by in categories: drones, information science, robotics/AI

Hussam Amrouch has developed an AI-ready architecture that is twice as powerful as comparable in-memory computing approaches. As reported in the journal Nature Communications (“First demonstration of in-memory computing crossbar using multi-level Cell FeFET”), the professor at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) applies a new computational paradigm using special circuits known as ferroelectric field effect transistors (FeFETs). Within a few years, this could prove useful for generative AI, deep learning algorithms and robotic applications.

  • The new architecture enables both data storage and calculations to be carried out on the same transistors, boosting efficiency and reducing heat.
  • The chip performs at 885 TOPS/W, significantly outperforming current CMOS chips which operate in the range of 10–20 TOPS/W, making it ideal for applications like real-time drone calculations, generative AI, and deep learning algorithms.
