How Efficient's Datafow Architecture Compares to von Neumann
Unlocking energy efficiency and performance
The effcc Compiler optimizes every step of your program’s operations for the Fabric architecture.
The trouble with most processors
Processors on the market today are still built on concepts developed over 70 years ago, with inherent limitations.
Traditional CPUs spend significant energy on the "instruction fetch/decode/execute" loop and constant data shuffling between registers and memory hierarchies. This overhead creates thermal and power ceilings that limit intelligence in constrained environments.
The power of hardware and software
The effcc Compiler transforms your source code into an optimized dataflow graph, while our place-and-route algorithms minimize wire length to reduce communication energy.
This tight coupling of software and hardware allows the Fabric architecture to reconfigure its interconnect for each kernel, providing sustained, real-world performance without the energy waste of a fixed-pipeline architecture. Our spatial dataflow execution keeps data close to compute and delivers up to 100x greater energy efficiency than leading low-power CPUs.
Expanding product capabilities
By combining high efficiency and strong performance, the Fabric architecture allows products to operate far longer, expanding their potential and enabling new use cases.
It lets you break free from the limitations of traditional processors and usher in what’s new.
