Last September in Hangzhou Yunqi meeting, Alibaba announced the establishment of chip companies "flat head brother Semiconductor Co., Ltd.", which integrates Ali last April by the acquisition of domestic chip companies Zhongtian micro chip with Ali's team made Bodhidharma hospital "flat head man" turned out since then.
In July this year, flat head brother Xuantie 910 officially released , allegedly is the industry's most powerful RISC-V processor.
Today Yunqi General Assembly held in Hangzhou on the "flat head man" Han Guang launched a high-performance AI reasoning chip 800. Han Guang 800 is flat after the establishment of Ali brother chip company's first formal tape-chips. This is the first time 阿里里巴巴 use its own set of hardware architecture, the Internet company also developed the first large chip.
Dean Dharma hospital Zhang Jianfeng announced the news, and said: "In the global chip sector, Ali Baba is a newcomer, and Han Guang 800 Xuantie Long March is the first step brother's flat, we still have a long way go. "
It is understood that ResNet-50 industry standard test, the inference performance to light containing 800 78563 IPS, 4 times higher than the current industry best AI chip performance; EER 500 IPS / W, 3.3 times the second. In Hangzhou, the city's business brain test, a count Han Guang force equivalent to 10 800 GPU.
Han Guang 800 breakthrough performance thanks to hardware and software collaborative innovation: the hardware level using self-developed chip architecture, chip effectively solve the performance bottleneck by reasoning acceleration technology; software level integrated hospital Dharma advanced algorithms for CNN and visual class depth optimization algorithm, storage density can be achieved in a large network model calculated on a complete NPU.
