Inkampani ye-chip eholwa nguJim Keller i-Tenstorrent ikhiphe iphrosesa yayo yesizukulwane esilandelayo se-Wormhole yemithwalo yemisebenzi ye-AI, elindele ukuthi inikeze ukusebenza okuhle ngentengo efinyelelekayo.Njengamanje inkampani inikeza amakhadi amabili e-PCIe engeziwe angamumatha iphrosesa eyodwa noma amabili e-Wormhole, kanye nezindawo zokusebenza ze-TT-LoudBox ne-TT-QuietBox zabathuthukisi be-software. Zonke izimemezelo zanamuhla ziqondiswe kubathuthukisi, hhayi labo abasebenzisa amabhodi e-Wormhole ukuze benze umsebenzi wokuthengisa.
“Kuhlale kujabulisa ukuthola imikhiqizo yethu eminingi ezandleni zabathuthukisi. Ukukhishwa kwezinhlelo zokuthuthukisa kusetshenziswa amakhadi ethu e-Wormhole™ kungasiza abathuthukisi ukuba balinganise futhi bathuthukise isofthiwe ye-AI yama-chip amaningi,” kusho uJim Keller, oyi-CEO ye-Tenstorrent.Ngaphezu kwalokhu kwethulwa, sijabulile ukubona inqubekela phambili esiyenzayo ngokukhipha kanye nokuqinisa umkhiqizo wethu wesizukulwane sesibili, iBlackhole.”
Iphrosesa ngayinye ye-Wormhole iqukethe ama-cores angu-72 Tensix (ayisihlanu awo asekela ama-RISC-V cores kumafomethi edatha ahlukahlukene) kanye no-108 MB we-SRAM, iletha 262 FP8 TFLOPS ku-1 GHz enamandla okuklama ashisayo angu-160W. Ikhadi le-single-chip Wormhole n150 lifakwe inkumbulo yevidiyo engu-12 GB GDDR6 futhi linomkhawulokudonsa ongu-288 GB/s.
Ama-Wormhole processors ahlinzeka ngokuqina okuguquguqukayo ukuze kuhlangatshezwane nezidingo ezihlukahlukene zomthwalo womsebenzi. Ekusethweni okujwayelekile kwendawo yokusebenza enamakhadi amane e-Wormhole n300, amaphrosesa angahlanganiswa abe yiyunithi eyodwa evela kusofthiwe njengenethiwekhi eyinhloko ye-Tensix ehlangene, ebanzi. Lokhu kulungiselelwa kuvumela isisheshisi ukuthi siphathe umsebenzi ofanayo, sihlukanise phakathi konjiniyela abane noma sisebenzise amamodeli e-AI ahlukene afika kwayisishiyagalombili ngesikhathi esisodwa. Isici esiyinhloko salokhu scalability ukuthi ingasebenza endaweni ngaphandle kwesidingo sokubona. Endaweni yesikhungo sedatha, ama-Wormhole processors azosebenzisa i-PCIe ukuze anwebe ngaphakathi komshini, noma i-Ethernet ukuze kunwetshwe ngaphandle.
Mayelana nokusebenza, ikhadi le-Tenstorrent's single-chip Wormhole n150 (72 Tensix cores, 1 GHz frequency, 108 MB SRAM, 12 GB GDDR6, 288 GB/s bandwidth) lithole umkhawulokudonsa ongu-262 FP8 ku-160W, kuyilapho i-dual-chip Wormhole n300 (128 Tensix cores, 1 GHz frequency, 192 MB SRAM, aggregated 24 GB GDDR6, 576 GB/s bandwidth) iletha kufika ku-466 FP8 TFLOPS ku-300W.
Ukuze sibeke i-300W ye-466 FP8 TFLOPS kumongo, sizoyiqhathanisa nalokho umholi wemakethe ye-AI uNvidia akunikezayo ngala mandla omklamo oshisayo. I-A100 kaNvidia ayisekeli i-FP8, kodwa iyayisekela i-INT8, ngokusebenza okuphezulu kwama-624 TOPS (1,248 TOPS uma iyingcosana). Uma kuqhathaniswa, i-Nvidia's H100 isekela i-FP8 futhi ifinyelela ukusebenza okuphezulu kwe-1,670 TFLOPS ku-300W (3,341 TFLOPS at sparse), ehluke kakhulu ku-Wormhole n300 ye-Tenstorrent.
Nokho, kunenkinga eyodwa enkulu. I-Tenstorrent's Wormhole n150 ithengisa ngo-$999, kuyilapho i-n300 ithengisa ngo-$1,399. Ngokuqhathanisa, ikhadi elilodwa lemifanekiso le-Nvidia H100 lithengisa ngama- $ 30,000, kuye ngenani. Vele, asazi ukuthi ama-Wormhole processors amane noma ayisishiyagalombili angakwazi yini ukuletha ukusebenza kwe-H300 eyodwa, kodwa ama-TDP awo angama-600W kanye ne-1200W ngokulandelanayo.
Ngokungeziwe kumakhadi, i-Tenstorrent inikeza izindawo zokusebenza ezakhelwe ngaphambili zabathuthukisi, okuhlanganisa namakhadi angu-4 n300 ku-TT-LoudBox esekelwe eXeon engabizi kakhulu enokupholisa okusebenzayo, kanye ne-TT-QuietBox ethuthukisiwe ene-EPYC-based Xiaolong) umsebenzi wokupholisa uketshezi).
