NVIDIA is deploying its Vera CPU across EDA workflows used to develop future CPUs and GPUs, collaborating with Cadence and Synopsys to optimize critical EDA applications with up to 1.5x performance improvement on selected workloads.
- NVIDIA Vera combines 88 custom Olympus CPU cores with LPDDR5X memory and NVIDIA Scalable Coherent Fabric
- Cadence Jasper and Synopsys VCS both showed up to 1.5x higher performance on selected workloads
- NVIDIA plans to follow Vera with the next-generation Rosa CPU powered by the Rigel core
- NVIDIA is using Vera in a feedback loop to help design future NVIDIA chips
