TDA4VM-Q1: systolic array support

Part Number: TDA4VM-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TDA4VM

Tool/software:

Dear Champs,

Could you please let me know if systolic array can be supported on TDA4VM?

My customer developed AI-BOX using TDA4VM and they are requested to inform if there is possibility to support systolic array for EXPORT control.

Could you please let me know if there is any possibility of systolic array support in TDA4VM?

Thanks and Best Regards,

SI.

  • Hi SI.,

    I am not aware of systolic array support in software. But, could you clarify two things, so that we can ask the broader team:

    1. Is it systolic array support on C7x? Or some other core like the ARM A72?
    2. What is EXPORT control? Searching online, the topics that come up are mainly export control laws for international shipments, and I have doubts that this is what you/customer are referring to.

  • Hi Takuma,

    Is it systolic array support on C7x? Or some other core like the ARM A72?

    Any cores. I think we need to check first on C7x + MMA. Please let me know first on C7x + MMA.

    What is EXPORT control? Searching online, the topics that come up are mainly export control laws for international shipments, and I have doubts that this is what you/customer are referring to.

    Your understanding is right. They need clarify the device according to EXPORT law, and need detailed information on systolic array support

    Thanks and Best Regards,

    SI.

  • Hi SI,

    Currently checking with the hardware team now. However, from asking around software team that work with the C7x+MMA, they are not aware of systolic array support.

  • Hi SI,

    Checked with our hardware team, but to our knowledge, there is no support for systolic array.
