Izimfanelo Zomkhiqizo

Ukuxhumana kuyisimo esisetshenziswa kakhulu kuma-FPGA

Uma kuqhathaniswa nezinye izinhlobo zama-chips, ukuhleleka (ukuguquguquka) kwama-FPGA kufaneleka kakhulu ekuthuthukisweni okuqhubekayo okuphindaphindwayo kwezivumelwano zokuxhumana.Ngakho-ke, ama-FPGA chips asetshenziswa kakhulu kumadivayisi okuxhumana angenantambo nanezintambo.

Ngokufika kwenkathi ye-5G, ama-FPGA akhuphuka ngevolumu namanani.Ngokuya ngobuningi, ngenxa yemvamisa ephezulu yomsakazo we-5G, ukuze kuzuzwe okuhloswe ukumbozwa okufanayo njenge-4G, cishe izikhathi ezi-3-4 inani leziteshi ze-4G ezidingekayo (e-China, isibonelo, ekupheleni kwe-20, isamba seziteshi eziyisisekelo zokuxhumana ngomakhalekhukhwini e-China sifinyelele ezigidini ezingu-9.31, ngokukhula kwenetha kwe-900,000 ngonyaka, lapho inani eliphelele leziteshi eziyisisekelo ze-4G lifinyelele ezigidini ezingu-5.75), kanti isikali sokwakhiwa kwemakethe yesikhathi esizayo kulindeleke ukuthi sibe ngamashumi yezigidi.Ngesikhathi esifanayo, ngenxa yesidingo esikhulu sokucubungula ngesikhathi esisodwa sayo yonke ikholomu yama-antenna amakhulu, ukusetshenziswa kwe-FPGA kweziteshi eziyisisekelo esisodwa ze-5G kuzokwenyuswa kusuka kumabhulokhi angu-2-3 kuya kumabhulokhi angu-4-5 uma kuqhathaniswa neziteshi zesisekelo esisodwa se-4G.Ngenxa yalokho, ukusetshenziswa kwe-FPGA, ingxenye ewumgogodla yengqalasizinda ye-5G kanye nemishini yokugcina, nakho kuzokwanda.Ngokwentengo yeyunithi, ama-FPGA asetshenziswa kakhulu kwi-baseband yama-transceivers.Inkathi ye-5G izobona ukwanda kwesilinganiso sama-FPGA asetshenziswa ngenxa yokwanda kwenani lamashaneli kanye nokwenyuka kobunzima bezibalo, futhi njengoba amanani entengo yama-FPGA ehlotshaniswa kahle nezinsiza eziku-chip, intengo yeyunithi kulindeleke ukuthi ukwanda ngokuqhubekayo esikhathini esizayo.I-FY22Q2, i-Xilinx' wireline, kanye nemali engenayo engenantambo ikhuphuke ngo-45.6% unyaka nonyaka yafinyelela ku-US$290 wezigidi, okwenza u-31% wayo yonke imali engenayo.

Ama-FPGA angasetshenziswa njengezisheshisi zesikhungo sedatha, izisheshisi ze-AI, ama-SmartNIC (amakhadi enethiwekhi ahlakaniphile), nama-accelerator kungqalasizinda yenethiwekhi.Eminyakeni yamuva nje, ukwanda kobuhlakani bokwenziwa, i-cloud computing, high-performance computing (HPC), nokushayela ngokuzihambela kunikeze ama-FPGA umfutho wemakethe entsha kanye nesikhala esikhulayo.

Isidingo sama-FPGA ashayelwa amakhadi e-AI esheshisa

Ngenxa yokuguquguquka namandla awo okwenza ikhompuyutha anesivinini esikhulu, ama-FPGA asetshenziswa kakhulu kumakhadi wokusheshisa we-AI.Uma kuqhathaniswa nama-GPU, ama-FPGA anezinzuzo ezisobala zokonga amandla;uma kuqhathaniswa nama-ASIC, ama-FPGA anokuguquguquka okukhulu okuhambisana nokuvela ngokushesha kwamanethiwekhi e-AI neural futhi ahambisane nezibuyekezo eziphindaphindwayo zama-algorithms.Ngokuhlomula ekuthuthukisweni okubanzi kwethemba lobuhlakani bokwenziwa, isidingo sama-FPGA sezinhlelo zokusebenza ze-AI sizoqhubeka nokuba ngcono esikhathini esizayo.Ngokusho kweSemicoResearch, usayizi wemakethe wama-FPGA ezimeni zohlelo lokusebenza lwe-AI uzophinda kathathu ngo-19-23 ukuze ufinyelele ku-US $ 5.2 billion.Uma kuqhathaniswa nemakethe ye-FPGA engu-$8.3 billion ngo-'21, amandla ezicelo ku-AI awanakubukelwa phansi.

Imakethe ethembisa kakhulu yama-FPGA isikhungo sedatha

Izikhungo zedatha zingenye yezimakethe ezisafufusa ezifaka izicelo zama-chips e-FPGA, ezine-latency ephansi + nomthamo ophezulu obeka amandla awumongo we-FPGAs.Ama-FPGA esikhungo sedatha asetshenziselwa kakhulu ukusheshisa ihadiwe futhi angafinyelela ukusheshisa okukhulu lapho kucutshungulwa ama-algorithms angokwezifiso uma kuqhathaniswa nezisombululo ze-CPU evamile: isibonelo, iphrojekthi ye-Microsoft Catapult yasebenzisa ama-FPGA esikhundleni sezixazululo ze-CPU esikhungweni sedatha ukucubungula ama-algorithms angokwezifiso e-Bing ngokushesha izikhathi ezingu-40, nemiphumela ephawulekayo yokusheshisa.Ngenxa yalokho, ama-accelerator e-FPGA atshalwe kumaseva e-Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS, kanye ne-AliCloud ukuze kusetshenziswe ukusheshisa kwekhompyutha kusukela ngo-2016. Esimeni sobhubhane esisheshisa ukuguqulwa kwedijithali emhlabeni wonke, izidingo zesikhungo sedatha zesikhathi esizayo zokusebenza kwe-chip zizokhula nakakhulu, futhi izikhungo zedatha ezengeziwe zizosebenzisa izixazululo ze-FPGA chip, ezizophinda zikhuphule inani lenani lama-chips e-FPGA kuma-chip esikhungweni sedatha.
