The wave of digitalization and intelligentization is sweeping the globe, triggering a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation. As one of the core drivers of this wave, intelligent chips, with strong computing power as the basic support, are becoming a new driving force for promoting technological innovation and the development of new quality productivity. Axera actively faces the opportunities and challenges in the edge computing field, launches a series of high-performance and low-power intelligent SoC chips, and strives to build a gold medal ecosystem cooperation system involving hardware suppliers, software developers, application partners and other parties. It accelerates the development of terminal application scenarios such as smart cities, intelligent driving and edge computing, and realizes the effective release of efficient computing power.

 

In collaboration with Axera, Yunji Interconnection has jointly developed a variety of products including M.2 computing power cards, PCIe-type computing power cards and AI-BOX (edge computing box) based on Axera's AX650N SoC chip, which features both high computing power and high energy efficiency ratio. These products can meet all customer needs from design to mass production, and provide professional technical support and after-sales service covering the entire product life cycle, helping users create greater value in fields such as smart cities, smart education and smart manufacturing.

According to Yunji Interconnection, the M.2 computing power card is equipped with the AX650N SoC chip and adopts the AxeraNeurons AI Processor, integrating a fully self-developed mixed-precision NPU architecture. It natively supports the Transformer intelligent processing platform, providing up to 72.0TOPS@INT4 or 18.0TOPS@INT8 computing power, with strong computing capacity and AI processing capabilities to meet the needs of various artificial intelligence applications. It also supports the efficient deployment and implementation of Large Language Models (LLM) on terminal devices.

In addition, the AX650N's excellent video encoding and decoding technology, rich interface options, and chip design focusing on security and low power consumption also ensure the outstanding performance of the product in edge computing scenarios. For example, the AI-BOX (edge computing box) equipped with the AX650N supports automatic recognition of people, vehicles and objects, can process and analyze data in real time, reduce data transmission delay, improve system response speed, and realize centralized integrated management.

The two parties also plan to develop and upgrade the "Axera Pi" series and related peripheral expansion products. The "Axera Pi", which has the advantages of low power consumption, low cost and high flexibility, will bring more cost-effective choices to the market.

Furthermore, by integrating their respective technological and market advantages, Yunji Interconnection will further leverage AI open-source hardware and model sharing platforms to build an open ecosystem together with Axera, encouraging more developers to participate in innovative practices, accelerating technological innovation and application development, and jointly leading the future development of the intelligent computing power industry.

 

In the cooperation with Sopush, based on Axera's two core technologies — AxeraNeurons Mixed-Precision NPU and AxeraVision AI-ISP — the two parties have jointly developed products such as intelligent boxes, intelligent servers and SO-DIMM core boards around the AX650N chip. These products help with intelligent video analysis and transcoding, reduce porting costs, shorten iteration cycles, and are applicable to many fields such as communities, campuses, shopping malls, hospitals and ports.

Taking the AX650N intelligent box as an example, its powerful intelligent video analysis and decoding functions not only support independent algorithm training, flexible configuration for different application scenarios, and remote real-time update and iteration, but also support connection with various platforms and devices for convenient and rapid deployment. The total machine power consumption is ≤7W, featuring low power consumption, energy saving and high efficiency. It can work in outdoor environments ranging from -40℃ to 85℃, with strong adaptability to harsh environments.
