Quadric

Quadric is a semiconductor IP company based in Burlingame, California that licenses the Chimera GPNPU (general-purpose neural processing unit) processor IP and its accompanying software stack for on-device and edge AI inference. The Chimera architecture unifies scalar, vector, and matrix compute in a single fully C++ programmable core so both AI graph operators and classic DSP/C++ code run on one pipeline, giving SoC designers a future-proof target for evolving model roadmaps. Quadric ships a developer toolchain rather than a hosted web API: the cloud-based DevStudio portal, the Chimera SDK (ONNX import from PyTorch and TensorFlow), the ChiPy Python programming interface, an LLVM-based C++ extensibility path, and an instruction-set simulator for pre-silicon performance modeling. This profile catalogs Quadric's developer surface for the API Evangelist network.

Quadric is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Artificial Intelligence, Machine-Learning, Semiconductors, and Processor IP.

Quadric’s developer surface includes documentation, signup flow, engineering blog, support, and 6 more developer resources.
