SiFive and OpenFive hit 5nm milestone.
SiFive on Tuesday said that that its OpenFive division has successfully taped out the company’s first system-on-chip (SoC) on TSMC’s N5 process technology. The SoC can be used for AI and HPC applications and can be further customized by SiFive customers to meet their needs. Meanwhile, elements from this SoC can be licensed and used for other N5 designs without any significant effort.
