David Bennett, CCO of Tenstorrent, highlighted the critical role of Arteris' NoC IP products in advancing AI computing technology, particularly praising the superior performance of the FlexNoC IP.

Operating globally, Tenstorrent is headquartered in Toronto, Canada, with additional offices in major tech hubs including Austin, Texas, and Silicon Valley.

The NoC interconnect is tailored to meet the high-performance and energy-efficiency demands of applications in AI, high-performance computing (HPC), and automotive sectors.

On November 5, 2024, Arteris, Inc. announced that Tenstorrent has licensed its FlexNoC network-on-chip (NoC) IP for use in chiplet-based products.

K. Charles Janac, president and CEO of Arteris, emphasized that their silicon-proven IP technology is designed to handle complex workloads and chiplet architectures, aligning with Tenstorrent's vision for affordable open computing platforms.

This interconnect IP enhances on-chip communication flow, optimizing performance, power efficiency, and area specifically for AI chip and chiplet computing.

Tenstorrent specializes in designing AI graph processors, high-performance RISC-V CPUs, and configurable chiplets, focusing on scalable and energy-efficient computing solutions for various AI and machine learning applications.

Overall, the FlexNoC IP is designed to improve communication efficiency, thereby enhancing the overall performance and productivity of AI computing systems.

FlexNoC offers advanced features such as congestion management, quality of service (QoS), and error detection and correction, which contribute to low-latency and power-efficient communication between CPU clusters.

Arteris aims to accelerate system-on-chip (SoC) development by providing high-performance interconnect IP that reduces power consumption and speeds up time to market.

FlexNoC, Arteris' non-coherent network-on-chip IP, is highly configurable and enhances data movement across CPU workloads, facilitating effective data transfer.
