Siemens Digital Industries Software Graphcore leverages multiple Mentor technologies for its massive, second-generation AI platform
Graphcore has used a range of technologies from Mentor, a Siemens business, to successfully design and verify its latest M2000 platform based on the Graphcore Colossus™ GC200 Intelligence Processing Unit (IPU) processor.
Integrating 59.4 billion transistors on a single 823sqmm die and manufactured on TSMC’s 7nm processes, Graphcore’s second-generation IPU is one of the most complex processors ever made. To tackle this design challenge, Graphcore leveraged multiple Mentor solutions to handle a range of critical tasks including circuit verification, PCB design, protocol verification, thermal analysis, design-for-test (DFT) and bring-up of the state-of-the-art AI processor.
“Mentor’s extremely comprehensive portfolio of world-class IC and PCB design automation tools delivered the capacity, innovation, IP and trusted flows we needed for a design of this magnitude,” said Phil Horsfield, vice president of Silicon at Graphcore. “The performance and capacity of Mentor’s solutions allowed us to optimize the entire electronics system and focus on our differentiating IP, which helped us deliver a truly unique and compelling end-product.”
To deliver its second-generation IPU, Graphcore used Mentor tools including:
“Demand for increasingly sophisticated AI chips is driving the industry’s top EDA software providers to enhance the capacity and scalability of their offerings across the entire design flow,” said Adrian Buckley, vice president, Europe for Mentor. “Customers like Graphcore are turning to Mentor’s highly advanced tools to help bring their products to market. Mentor is pleased to have played such a significant role in development of Graphcore’s ColossusGC200 IPU, which is one of the largest and most advanced AI platforms ever developed.”
